In the sentence, "Elle a été très impressionnée" we used passe compose whereas with "c'etait très romantique" we used imparfait. Aren't they both expressing an emotion so it should be imparfait for the first example instead of passe compose? Please help me out Thank you 

1. Can we aussi say ' Il ne devrait y avoir aucun problème ' ?

2. I wanted to check with you what type of pillows you use. 

The answer is je voulais vérifier avec vous quel type d'oreillers vous utilisez. 

Why there is no 'que' after 'oreillers' ? 

to help me remember which demonstrative pronoun to use.  I'm surprised i haven't come across this somewhere else because now it seems obvious to me.

Anyway, thought i'd share in case it can help others.

Think of them like this:

ce-lui

c-eux

c-elle

c-elles

of course, just remove the hyphen and you have your correct demonstrative pronoun!

I encounter "hanoukia," the french word for menorah, most often spelled w/ two k's, ala "hanoukkia." Even here, there's an A1 quiz question "Nous allumons les bougies de la hanoukkia ________."

Après qu’il fut parti, tu détruisis toutes ses affaires. 

What tense is “il fut parti”?  It appears to be a compound tense with the auxiliary verb in passé simple. 

From the lesson:

J'en ai rachete, juste au cas ou. And "with juste au cas ou, youn can only use Le Conditional.  

But the conditional is j'aurais achete or is this s typo?
