On the quiz, the correct answer to the imperative form of donner for tu is marked as "donne", not "donnes". Am I missing something or is it supposed to be "donne-moi"?
Been looking at this for a long time. Conclusion is if you want to write a sentence using a/the/my , Or making a general opinion then use c'est. Otherwise use I'll/Elle est to make a specific opinion towards something/someone if there is no a/the/my in the sentence?
Does the same rule explained in this lesson also apply for Lorsque and Alors que ?
'Lorsque je serai vieux, j'aurai une maison.' [When I AM old, I will have a house.]
'Tu feras tes devoirs alors que je ferai la vaisselle.' [You will do your homework while I DO the dishes.]
