This week's A2 writing challengeThis week's A2 writing challenge asked us to translate "I don't feel my legs anymore." The answer given was: "Je ne sens plus mes jambes." I was so proud to remember NOT to use the possessive pronoun in such cases and translated the sentence as: "...les jambes." Why am I wrong???? Thanks, -- Chris.

Cet exercice est vraiment excellent! Particulierement les traductions pour chaque phrase! Mais ce que je ne comprends pas c'est pourquoi on a dit ,"

'le cote droit' mais le mur de droite (avec un 'e' bien que le mur est un nom masculin)?. Pardonnez maid le keyboard n'a pas d'accents francais.

Using 'juste'

"Nous sommes partis en avance juste au cas où"

This is still being marked as incorrect (because it contains the word 'juste').

I have reported it.

Idionatic use of 'would 'Presumably one could translate into English using 'would': Eg 'We would go and see our grandmother on Sunday' carries the same sense of a repeated action that the imperfect does.

Doubt regarding one of the examples aboveTu amèneras des citrouilles pour qu'on les sculpte? I thought "amener" was used for people and animals. Shouldn't we use "apporter" here ?
