It seems like you are trying to explain two concepts, but aren't explicit about it.First compound subjects take plural verb forms: Sarah et ma soeur sont allées à la plage.

Second the subject pronoun changes form from its singular usage:

je --> moi

tu --> toi

Nul vs. inutile

I notice that 'nul' is used in the response for 'useless' in the passages yet 'inutile' is accepted as the preferred translation in the explanatory paragraph at the end. Why is this so?

Bonjour Madame Cécile ! A question on Petit Ours Brun fait des crêpes.

Bonjour Madame !

Thanks for posting such a captivating and mesmerising reader. But I would like to ask a question regarding a phrase which reads-

Bravo Papa! (rires) On n’arrivera jamais à faire de belles crêpes !

Indeed, here the Brown Bear comminicates with his dad but why is the verb ‘rire’ conjugated as ‘rires’ though I learnt from a lesson that it is - Il rit/ Elle rit/ On rit .

Is this a special way of expressing one’s emotions while transcribing in French ?

Merci d’avance ! Bonne journée !

Bonjour

What if you wanted to say "Give him to me", would that be "Donne-lui-moi"? Or would that also be "Donne-le-moi"?

Does "donne-lui-moi" exist?

Merci

For “I send my parcel” I said “J’expédie mon colis” - which was marked wrong, why ?

Usage of y ou là

Hi - thanks for this great website. I have a question regarding y and 'la\la-bas'. I am not sure whether they can be used interchangeably? For example we could both say J'y vais ou je vais là and, if so, does it keep the same meaning? Thank you!
