Thinking that I understood the rule,I stupidly wrote "Oui c'est bon," and of course got it wrong. My natural inclination was to put "oui, c'est bonne." But, I veered because of the rule. Obviously, I do not understand the rule. Would you please explain it more clearly? :o)
After studying these lessons I don’t understand why, for example,
Vous vous aimez promener ici? Is wrong!?
And
Vous aimez vous promener ici? Is correct.
It's said "Je suis assis entre Léa et Tim" above.
Firstly; Is there a present continuous form in french?
And why do we use "être" in this sentence?
Is there any logic to the gender of body parts or is it just random to be memorized?
can i use bientot with future proche.
i am soon going to buy a new car.
Je vais bientot acheter une nouvelle voiture.
is this correct or should i simply say.
Je vais acheter une voiture.
The "and" is superfluous to the meaning. In my experience, I have only heard it from people (some of them my relatives, malheureusement!) who have not graduated from high school, or who are deliberately trying to sound uneducated. Moreover, they usually slur the "and" so that it sounds like "... go 'n' visit ... "We'll go visit the Eiffel Tower when we're in Paris" sounds just fine to my ear, much better without the "and".

« bien qu’on ne s’entend pas, c’est quand même mon frère ». this is not the right place to ask this question but the example is here!
what is the rule that says « c’est quand même » instead of « il est quand même » mon frère?
The writing challenge asked "Some friends have recommened a gite".
The answer accepted was "Des amis nous ont recommandé un gîte."
An answer that was not accepted was "Certains amis nous ont recommandé un gîte."
Why is the second one wrong?
