If tout en + gérondif is used when two actions are being done at the same time why is the translation of "She's revising while having her breakfast" Elle révise en prenant son petit-déjeuner instead of Elle révise tout en prenant son petit-déjeuner?
Why does the "Si" clause use imperfect tense and not past conditional tense when the main part of the sentence uses present conditional tense?
(Yes, the answer is likely "That's just the way it works" - but I am curious.)
In the question presented, it said she had missed her bus and therefore had to ____________. I put "aller a pied" and the answer came up as "marcher". This does not seem to agree with the explication in the lesson.
