I thought "par hasard" meant "by chance" and "au hasard" meant "randomly". To me, this is similar to the difficulty in distinguishing au moins/du moins and enfin/finalement.
So you only use va/vont? And do you conjugate with the person or the object?
Eg la rose va a ma sœur - is it la rose or ma sœur that is triggering these use of va?
In the same way, how would you say the rose suits us?
Cet exercice n'était pas un niveau C1 - comme indiqué
Hello, I couldn't see an example with 'cet', when do you use it please?
Could the postman say “je fais un boulot important”?
Is "tiens" an intensifier here? As (in English - "I'll say" or "I'll tell you what" or "bloody hell" etc etc :)
When using avoir as the auxilliary verb in the passe compose, I thought that the past participle had to agree with the direct object... so in the previous exercise there was:
"Nous avons nouri nos chiens" ...are not les chiens the direct object of the verb in that sentence?
"il a fini ses devoirs" ...are not les devoirs the direct object of that sentence...?
...I guess I have got something very wrong here... grateful for any guidance...

You use rapidement = vite = fast in another question !!!
Ce jour-là tu as retenu la parole.
and the only accepted answer was:
Ce jour-là tu as retenu parole.
Could someone advise on why the former is incorrect? Is it idiomatic?
thanks
