In the lesson we are to translate "It was my favorite word for years" The word referred to was baguette. Since it is a specific word, why is the translation using C'est?

Ne Ni Ni in the quiz question is grammatically incorrect.Neither is one of two things. Therefore the question in the quiz was grammatically incorrect.` I like neither the guitar, nor the violin, nor the piano` is not phrased correctly.

Aller là-bas

Two Kwiz questions linked to this lesson give the above construction for "go there" - can y aller be used instead? Is there a distinction?

She wants you to go there = Elle veut que tu ailles là-bas

Do you want me to go there? = Veux-tu que j’aille là-bas ?
