In the audio for "Quand partent-ils" I hear partetil, I thought it would sound more like par til

Merci

Hello, 

I'd like to know Why am I not able to control the player or why are there no player controls for the audio? Or is this intentional that I must listen through the whole exercise without being able to playback a particular section? 

Thank you.

Could you say:

Il y a les chiens... to say there are dogs

and then say il y a des chiens... to say there are some dogs?

The lesson appears to focus on making a distinction between use of trouver (to find something) and trouver que (to think something).  Yet in the examples the previously mentioned translation (post about a year ago) of the above remains 'he finds' not 'he thinks' and in a dashboard test today "Ils me trouvent charmant"and "Ils me trouvent que ...."  were both given as being "they find me charming". Either there is a clear distinction between the 2 forms or there is not. At present the lesson quite clearly makes the case there is but the discordant examples and test answers are confusing. Edit required.

Bonjour!  Qu'est-ce c'est la différence entre paraître et apparaître? 
Merci d'avance.

Why is alors que wrong rather than pendant que. Is alors que only used for opposition?
