The narrator is recalling events that happened on only one occasion and instantaneously. Why does she use the imperfect?

same problem, cant retake the quiz, very annoying

Can someone help? I learnt what I thought was a beautiful French expression with 'comprendre' which meant basically "I am confused".  It woud be in a form like "I am confused please explain it to me more".. with the verb comprendre.

This lesson reminded me of it but I cannot recall the precise syntax now! Anyone?  Thanks!

Hello team. 

In the writing challenge, 'when my dad and I would get up at the crack of dawn', is translated as 'où mon papa et moi nous levions aux aurores' . 

Please explain why the reflexive is not used here as in 'où mon papa et moi nous nous levions aux aurores' ?

After all, the verb 'se lever' is reflexive, right?

Thank you 

why not en passant or il se trouve? I don't understand usage of "justement" here for "as it happens"

In the tutorial Sortir can be used in the context of leaving. That is why I gave that option as a possible answer in the tick box. To avoid confusion the sentence in parenthesis should be removed.

Nous sortons juste du métro.We're just coming out of the metro.
(We're just leaving the metro.)

Is this an idiomatic exclamation? I don't see what the 'que' is doing grammatically.
