Do adjectives still agree when you use 'c'etait'?For example. If I were to say "Nous avons eu une tempete. C'etait effrayante." Would that be correct (apart from the missing accent on tempete which I can't get to work in this box!)

Example soundsElles choisissent leurs robes. --> They're choosing their dresses. When I play the pronunciation for this phrase, it sounds like this: Elles choisissent sa robe. Is it possible that is what is being said, en erreur? Merci.

Je me demande, n'est-ce pas la même chose en anglais? "as in French you cannot have a noun without article." ou "without an article"?

Why is there no « de » after pas in this exam with languages?Is there not a rule « ne pas de »? How comes you don’t use « de » in this example: Ils ne parlent pas espagnol/ l’espagnol. ?

me lèveI think "je me lève" should be translated as both "i wake up" and "i get up". Why do you consider "i wake up" as wrong answer?

Would “rose” be an invariable color? Would it be correct to say, ”J’aime des roses rose!”

Des yeux noisette--CorrectI thought I was following the rule: this phrase is not a compound adjective, nor does the color derive from a real thing.
