I have reported this beforehand, which might have been the wrong thing to do before posting to the Q&A Forum, but it seems my point was missed by the person responding to the report, so I'll try to see if this is a better place for a more fluid conversation.

I'm not a native speaker of either English(though my proficiency level is definitely not low) or French(not so good with this one yet), but it seems to me that both *I'm going to go* and *I will go* can be used for immediate future (whatever ''planning'' arrangements might be), and it's rather ambiguous in the french sentence to deduce that *am going to go* should be used over *will go*, thus to me it would seem that both variants should be accepted as viable answers.

I would be glad if somebody could clear up why one is acceptable, and the other is not.

Thank you.

Replacing à + object with ‘y’

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 !

Que vs QuiI thought I understood when to use que vs qui until I encountered this question in B2:La femme________ je travaille est très sympa. (The woman for whom I work is very nice.)'pour qui' or 'pour que'
It seemed to me the subj.present verb 'travaille' had the ''subject je so the qui/que was providing the object, hence I chose que, but apparently the answer is qui. See also tips in the above lesson, since it is followed by je shouldn't it be que?

À la bibliothèque (Fill-in-the-blanks kwiz)

Bonjour Madame Cécile !

While attempting this exercise on Le Subjonctif Présent, I had queries in the following sentence->

1. J'étais comme votre fils, jusqu'à ce qu'un jour, j'aille dans la bibliothèque de mon quartier,et que je me mette à dévorer les romans “Donjons & Dragons.

In this sentence, Madame, why is the Subjonctif used in the second blank ? Can’t it be “je me mets” ?

2. Oui, et j'ai peur que cela ne lui fasse un peu peur.

Here, Madame, why does Mme. Aurélie use “cela” instead of “il” when referring to a Harry Potter novel ?

Merci encore Madame !

Prenez soin de vous et restez en sécurité.

Bonne journée!

“Il ne fait pas de tout” vs “ il ne fait rien”. The second is “correct.” Why is the first incorrect?

Duration of time versus a precise moment

I am having trouble with a duration of time vs a precise moment. I thought that the sentence, THAT evening went very well, as a precise moment and therefore masculine. Why is it CETTE soirée s'est très bien passé ?
