Hello,
I was wondering if I can post my translation of the reading exercise of Cher journal for my answers here to see how I did or is there a page where it shows it correctly of the translation?
Thanks for your help

Ex. from above: Ils ont réussi à la convaincre. Subject They/verb succeeded - requires preposition à before infinitive verb convaincre to convince?
I am wondering why "la" direct object is used here instead of "lui" please? Merci!
In the lesson:
Il faut une gomme pour effacer des erreurs.We need a rubber / eraser to erase mistakes.What is the difference between above and:
Il nous faut une gomme pour effacer des erreurs.
? Is it simply a matter of formality or is it incorrect?
thanks
The lesson notes an exception for naître (correctly) and for apparaître. It does not clearly state the exception for apparaître - although I note in discussion it has been mentioned it is because it also conjugates with être in passé composé. As I understand it, and checking other verb conjugation sites, this is correct but not what is shown on the verb conjugation site of Lawless French https://www.lawlessfrench.com/verb-conjugations/apparaitre/
