some word combinations use liason and others do not?

In this same example in the audio, I am wondering why "... toutes ont disparu" runs the "t" into the "ont", instead of the last letter consonent "s" into the "ont". I see this on and off but haven't found a lesson on the topic yet. Merci!

On regardait les lucioles, et soudain toutes ont disparu.

Use of pas du tout to mean nothing at all ?

Is " Je n'ai dit pas du tout " a valid French expression and would it be an alternative to " Je n'ai rien dit " ?

Tests on the free package

Hello, how come I can't do any tests on the free package? Clicking on tests always leads me to the upgrade page. I thought we get 10 free tests/kwizzes per month. My paid subscription expired on 11 august and I havent used kwiziq since before that date. Thanks

Impersonal verb vs direct object

Hello again,

I have a question when looking over my answers and noticing that il me reste is using the impersonal verb shouldn't the suggestion lesson change from direct/indirect object to impersonal verb?

Thanks

Nous ne nous sommes pas couchés hier soir

I’m having real difficulty pronouncing this sentence and I’m wondering whether in conversation the « ne » is dropped to ease pronunciation.

Simple past and etre

I am somewhat confused by one of your examples "Je suis assis entre Léa et Tim." The point of the exercise is not lost on me you are using the sentence to demonstrate the use of "entre". What puzzles me is the use of "je suis assis" which combines the present tense of etre "je suis" with the simple past of to sit "assoier". I'm obviously missing something obvious but it totally confuses me. I thought you had suggested that "I am sitting" and "I sit" can be expressed by the same construction, the meaning altered by context; so why not "J'assieds entre Léa et Tim"?
