Quelques, plusiers and distancethe green box refers to an example that hasn’t been mentioned...that of living a few or several streets away. I see the two sentences further down in the last list but somehow in the editing process they were left out of the lesson

In the exercise quelques livres is translated as a couple of books as well as some books. In English I was always taught that strictly "couple" means two and it's a misuse to use it otherwise. Can you explain why quelques therefore translates as some and two? Thank you.

N. asked: "Why "on me permet" becomes "they allow..." rather than "we allow" or "one allows"."

"On me permet d’utiliser l’ordinateur." (They allow me to use the computer.)

Re quizzing our studyplan

Hey there, I am wondering if I am doing something wrong. When I get my Studyplan, I go through the list, often will be something like "kept 8, here's two new topics" and so will do the new lessons and then go to the longer test. I have pressed "Test Recommended again" at the top as well as the "test again" at the bottom of the results page. When I do this, I will often get questions on topics I have not yet studied. Why is this??

down the stairs to the basement?

If instead of just going down to the basement to fetch a bottle of wine, she went down THE STAIRS to the basement to fetch the bottle, would you conjugate descendre with etre or avoir?
