I wrote vous êtes cachés and it was caché, but there was no indication that the vous was singular. I could have guessed that only one person was hiding, but it wasn’t clear so I went with the rule. Please make situations like this more explicit so we don’t get marked down for it. Thanks so much!

Why is est being used with coincer ? Why can’t we say elle a coincé ….?

Or as we know that with depuis, we use present tense , then why can’t we say…. Elle coince là….?

I answered the "vampires in the morning question" (I have attempted to include the french text several times, but the website keeps reducing to a ">";  i guess it doesn't play nice with ">") and would like to better understand why. Am I correct in that the parts of speech for the "nous" are as follows: 1st stress pronoun, 2nd subject pronoun, 3rd reflexive pronoun? I was, prior to the quiz, under the impression that the first "nous" actually serves as a subject pronoun (auxiliary to the les vampires) and thus I omitted the 2nd "nous" in my answer. To help solidify my understanding, would the following be correct: > or does this construction only form with plural subjects? Merci d'avance!

In the grammar lesson, it explains that you can use either "en" or "de" in "un sac .... cuir". So to avoid confusion,  would it not be better to show that both "en" and "de" are also both acceptable answers in "Je possède un blouson _____ cuir". Or are they?
