Très rapideSonne comme une course de chevauSSonne comme une course de cheveaux. Ce n'est pas une vitesse très agréable. Je pense qu'elle se précipite pour terminer dans un très petit laps de temps.

Can I use this construction with an infinitive as the "object" of the liking?I know how to use aimer + infinitive to express liking.  J'aime manger!  Par exemple.  How about Manger me plait?   Probably not, but just wondering.

using partir or sortir

Hello

on the quiz: "we are leaving at four:" I chose "nous sortons à quatre," because I took it to mean "in the process of." But "partons" is correct, because "sortons" requires an actual place. Is that correct? 

Thanks

We are leaving at four o’clock." ?Nous partons à quatre heures.Nous laissons à quatre heures.Nous quittons à quatre heures.Nous sortons à quatre heures.

Faire de la plongée sous-marine

This is translate by “doing scuba” and “deep dive” whereas there is no differences or word placed for “deep”. How’s that?

Help

I am confused in this lesson.We are given the following guideline..."Note that to make a command negative, put ne or n' before the verb in L'Impératif and pas after it."I am confused because I do not see verbs in the examples that are conjugated in L'Impérfait.To me, the examples seem to show verbs conjugated in Le Présent.

Please clear this up for me.Merci.
