how to identify verbs and nouns

J'entend il se rend, pas on se rend, dans le phrase "et on se rend dans les cimetières".

I like to have models to follow, and your lesson gives the following model: Rappeler + à + person being reminded + [infinitive]

Yet your quiz question "She reminds us to take our jackets"

is given the correct answer "Elle nous rappele de prendre nos vestes"

The model suggests that 'à' is a necessary part of the correct grammer but here it would be marked as wrong. I am disappointed and confused by the lesson that offers a clear model that is not correct.

At the end of the exercise, I would find it helpful to view my full (botched) transcript of the exercise alongside Kwizbot's. It could be toggled on or off from viewing.  

I don’t get the nuance of ‘J’arrive dans 10 minutes’.  'I arrive in 10 minutes' is the same, to me, as saying ‘I will arrive in 10 minutes.   

C'est très difficile, mais c'est parti. Je suis ici pour apprendre le français.

Bonjour,

I was working on a quiz and I put "La situation devienne incontrôlable" but that answer is wrong? Apparently, even though la situation is feminine, the answer is "La situation devient..."??

I thought that se rappeler does not require a de preposition unless it comes before a verb.  Why does she say "Je m'en rappelle ..." in the last sentence and not "je me le rappelle ....?"  Merci !
