The "les notres" replaces the plural noun "plantes" which is feminine; so why is the " les notres masculine? What am I missing here?  Would appreciate imput.

When doing an A1 exercise, Kwizbot translates 'On Monday I go snorkelling', and 'on Tuesday Hugo and I rent a jet ski', with "le lundi....." and "le mardi...." . Surely this is inconsistent with the rule given in the notes, where using the definite article imp[lies every Monday, or habitually on Tuesdays ???? I did not use the definite article precisely because I interpret this sentence to mean the events were one time only, with reference to next Monday and next Tuesday??

You're washing yourself! (i.e. You do it on your own!)

I thought when it means on your own it is 'tout seul'. Is this phrase idiomatic, and doesn't necessary mean 'washing'? I am confused with i.e. you do it on your own. For example, can I use this phrase to say a kid baked a cake on his own?

Since the word "all" appears in English in the phrase "all three together", why can't a possible translation be "tous les trois ensemble"? I've commonly seen tous les deux used in French to mean both of them. 

Thanks!

I am assuming that "was supposed to" and "ought to have" are the same: "he ought to have reminded me"/"he was supposed to remind me" = "il devrait me rappeler".

Why not ces temps-ci as well as ces jours-ci?
