As per Danilo's comment previously, (~11 months ago) it would be helpful with the examples for parler/finir/faire/prendre to have both the translation for the present tense form (as currently is included) and also for the imparfait form associated. I had to do a double take on this too - the lesson is on imparfait, and I expected consolidation of the meaning of those conjugations in the section. Relatively minor but useful, I think.

This sentence in the writing challenges had me fooled: Mon meilleur ami Pierre, qui jusqu'à l'année dernière partageait un trois-pièce avec moi....My thought was the jusqu'à means the action ended, and thus, I used the passé composé. I realized it had been a habit, but how does one know what to do when more than one rule applies?

How to use present to indicate futureIn today's quiz, A1 Beginner Focus test, the question was what is the meaning of "Je vais au restaurant plus tard." I answered "I am going to the restaurant later." and "I will go to the restaurant later." The latter one was marked wrong - not equal to" I am going to the restaurant later." But in the next quiz, Question 6 , "J'arrive dans dix minutes." gives the correct answer as, "I will arrive in ten minutes."

What gives?

en use with masculine countries

Hi,

The lesson says "[f]or pronunciation reasons, you will use en with masculine countries starting with a vowel". I was wondering if it is also written out in this way or if it is only pronounced this way and the au preposition is maintained for singular masculine countries in writing.

Also, does this rule apply to countries with aux as their preposition? For example, would the aux of États-Unis become en?

Thanks!

Should it not be "le virage dernier" rather than "le dernier virage"?

The way I understand devoir, it can mean inevitability in the imparfait such as Il eva it perdre un jour. in the test question, the answer for she had

to replace him was "Elle a dû" vs if it was inevitable, shouldn't "Elle devait" be correct as well?
