what is finies

Hello,

In the sentence below, finies means gone/finished, but is it used as a noun or is something different? I checked the conjugator there is no such thing as finies, too. What kind of usage is this?

Finies mes journees tranquilles !

Using ‘aller’ for imperative with reflexive verbsBonsoir, The lesson indicated that when we use ‘aller’ for an imperative with a reflexive verb we should use the infinitive form of the verb as in: Allez, vous habiller! So the answer provided for the corresponding question should have been: Allez, vous embrasser! Instead, it was : Allez, embrassez-vous! Can you please explain why? Thanks!

Is it cold?I've tried a couple of alternative ways to say this other than the stock "Il fait froid". I know they are not listed as alternatives, but are mine correct. 1. Il fait mal, can you say this as "Il fait bon" means it's warm/hot? 2 In my experience most native speakers I have met would usually say "Il ne fait pas chaud", or some highly contracted form.

"For lying" and "for having lied"?I guess this is more of an English question. What is the difference between "for lying" and "for having lied"?
