Ça vs C'est vs Il estI have read the lessons on all these. In a quiz, asking me to translate "It's getting on my nerves," I chose "Il est" because "it's" must be referring to something specific. We don't know what, but no one says generally "It's getting on my nerves" without "it's" referring to something specific. The correct answer is given as "Ça". Even if "it's" was referring to something general, why would it be "Ça" instead of "C'est"?

Kwiziq ScoringI was trying to improve my previous A1 & A2 grades and remove the light yellow areas in my brain map and it seems impossible to get above 84.6%. I'd be right at 84.6% and then get a succession of 10/10 results and my score would drop to 84.5%. I could then work back to 84.6% slowly - but I couldn't ever seem to get above that result and the yellow areas in my brain map stayed depressingly un-green.
