Can Tous as a pronoun be a standalone subject?___ est bien qui finit bien (All's well that end's well)

Correct answer is Tout

Just clarification, Tout here means everything, that's why it is tout not tous? Can tout (as a pronuon) be used as a stand alone subject ?

subjonctif 2 sujets/infinitif 1 sujet (excepté pour croire et penser?)On utilise le subjonctif quand on a 2 différents sujets (je veux que tu ailles...) mais l’infinitif si c’est le meme sujet (je veux aller). Pourquoi avec ‘penser’ et ‘croire’ cela semble-t-il acceptable (je pense/je crois que j’irai - ok c’est l’indicatif, mais même au négatif avec le subjonctif: je ne pense pas que j’aille). Meme si ‘je ne pense pas aller’ est peut-être mieux, le subjonctif semble marcher aussi. Pourquoi?

Upper case letters with accents

Hi there,

I just did one test and I got a half score because I dropped an accent from an upper case É. I learnt that you don't put accents on upper case letters somewhere before. What is the correct way?

Thanks,

Your answer leaves me confused when you refer to an advanced change in the rule concerning the agreement when using “avoir”. Also that it “can” agree.

... le basilic à la salade

The English text had the word "and" before "the basil", and I seem to hear it in the French audio in the short segment that accompanies the text. Surely "et" should be part of the sentence?

Merci!
