Way back in the dim, distant past when I first started learning French, I think I remember being told that to accept an offer, you say "s'il vous plaît" and to decline, you use 'merci".

Eg.: Voulez-vous un verre de vin? Oui, s'il vous plaît./ Non, merci.

I think we also learnt that if you simply replied "merci", it would be understood as declining the offer.

Is this correct?

Préposition

Shivani A1

We use de, du and des with venir verb and country, region or state. What preposition will we use with verb aller and country? e.g I go to Canada.

Why do you use "le goûter" instead of "la goûter" since the object refers back to "tarte aux fruits" which is feminine?

"use ce que when followed by a subject pronoun (je/tu/il etc)" this statement is in the lesson.

When I did a test, I answered one wrong because the correct answer was;

Nous ne savons pas ce qui tu fais

Could you please explain this?

Si versus tellement

Both si and tellement are used for so. Are thee interchangeable or is there a preferred context for use?
