Hi, in La Maison de Cendrillon the correction sais: Au rez-de chaussée, 1 hyphen?

I have not seen this one addressed elsewhere, so I will post it and see if there is any advice. In all the exercises so far, "près de" is used. I am in Quebec and have been using "proche de", which seems to be commonly used.

So - the question: is there some subtle differences in the use of "près" or "proche" which I should learn?

The question was “ tell your friends, don’t sit down!” Shouldn’t we use the tu form not the vous form in this case?

Hello.
The English sentence is: I'd never seen that, it was like in a horror movie!

I must have missed the rule that explains the use of conditional past in French. Can you enlighten me please.

Thanks.

In English we do not say they kissed themselves. I see this has been discussed before. It is an incorrect translation

Hello, I am a little confused on what makes the following example a general statement: La jupe coûte 30 euros. - C’est cher! 

Based off another lesson on using C’est vs il/elle est, it seems to me like the above statement is commenting on a specific item and should instead be:

La jupe coûte 30 euros. - Elle est chère!

What is the difference here? Merci!
