Spelling mistakes + unanswered questions.

Unfortunately I make lots of mistakes in spelling and often do not answer a question. These can be caused by my clumsiness when using touch screen tablets. It does not necessarily mean that I didn't know the answers. Would it be possible for Kwiziq to introduce a filter which allows the learner to override these "mistakes". I make spelling mistakes using touch screen tablets I would never make when writing long hand. It seems that my keyboard skills are being tested not just my French.

Bad hint?In today's A2 writing exercise: https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/my-languages/french/exercises/overview/160?utm_source=blk&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=msg_448551You give the hint: Use "faire la connaissance de" = to get acquainted with. But it is counted wrong. I wrote "et ses griffes ont deja fait la connaissance de notre canape. And "la" and "de" are crossed out and "de" replaced with "avec". -- Either the hint is wrong, our the correction is wrong. N'est-ce pas?
