Why is it des and not les?  Could you point me towards the lesson that explains this?

My answer is milliers d'
but somehow its not correct. It should be mille.

deux mille euros
deux milliers d'euros

both are correct, right? How come my answer is right?

why not use "exiger" for require, demand.  ça demand = ça exige ?

It never lasts long >

Can I use "il ne dure jamais longtemps" instead of "ça ne dure jamais longtemps "?

mais comme je prends froid facilement, 

mais comme je prends facilement froid.

Both are correct.

1, you say that "a regarde" should have an "s" after the "e". Why? Surely with avoir there is no agreement? 

2,the same with "a pardonnes" lower down. Surely this also should just end with an "e" acute! 

3, finally, when she pardons us, that is an action that is over and done with, a once and once only act, therefore why is that not past compose? 

Many thanks, Tim

P.S. Sorry, can't do accents on my keyboard!

Could you explain why «coquille» is not accepted for "shell"? In LaRousse, «coquillage» appears to primarily mean the group of animals, and can refer to only the soft living part inside the shell. Indeed the first definition of «coquillage» is «Mollusque revêtu d'une coquille».

Bonjour Madame, 

A sentence from the lesson states -  

Nous nous l'imaginons blonde aux yeux bleus. 

Could “aux yeux bleus” be replaced with “y” as and be correct -

Nous nous l’y imaginons blonde. ? 

Merci beaucoup !

What is the difference between 'du côté de' and 'au côté de' ?

Would you give an example of a sentence using the negation "ne . . . point"? Thanks!
