Do you French really keep your sweets in caldrons?In England cauldrons are almost exclusively used by witches I believe. I would love to see their use extended to keeping sweets in.

Use of 'auquel' / à qui instead of 'que'

In the lesson ‘Que = Whom, which, that (relative pronouns)’ an example sentence is given as:

‘La femme que je dessine’

An example sentence from this lesson is: ‘Le chat, auquel tu as fait peur’ OR ‘Le chat, à qui tu as fait peur’

I’m struggling to understand why is ‘Le chat, que tu as fait peur’ is not used?

Thanks

Feminine of sûr

As it is the girl who says that she is sure, shouldn't it be "Je suis sûre que ... " instead of "Je suis sûr que ... ?

Also, is "Ce n'est pas grave" (with silent "ne") an accepted alternative for "C'est pas grave" in writing dictation? (I often can't hear all the little words in spoken French but still try to include them in my written responses)
