Passé Composé of êtreI thought Etre is typically imparfait because it expresses a state of being or background information. "L'accueil du public a été bouleversant." Why is this verb in this sentence PC? Merci!

Il fait du soleil?"Case of il fait du soleil or Il fait soleil: This seems to be presented as idiomatic in a lot of French learning methods, and to be perfectly honest, some French people use it. However, it is not good French and still sounds clunky and child-like to many French ears (including mine!).
Il fait should always be followed by an adjective, and il y a used with nouns."

Isn't saying "Il fait du soleil" saying 'it is sunny?' Sunny being an adjective?

Follow-up question on your answer about des versus les

Hi Chris, But the English translation above says: These doctors see patients from eight to five.

That does not sound like they are seeing specific patients to me. It sounds like this is the timeframe in which they see any patients. What am I missing?

ce que in front of a reflexive pronoun?

I am a bit confused with the following sentence. The correct thing is to put ce que but instead, in the lesson, we know that ce qui should be used when the next word is a verb or an object or a reflexive pronoun?? Is it because, the "tu" is in front of the m' that doesn't count? Because I assumed that since there is a reflexive verb I should put ce qui.

Je me demande ce que tu m'as acheté pour Noël.

Thanks,

Anna
