"C'est alors que Maxine_______mon sac et s'est enfin en courant." I got this question wrong because I chose the Imparfait rather than PC. Is the correct reason for using the PC because Marie's action is best described as a sudden one, it cuts into something ongoing? I thought I had the difference between the two straight in my mind but obviously "non". Can you explain/confirm if my reasoning (after getting it wrong!) is correct? Thanks. Valerie
Hello is the expression tant miuex the same as bonne chehance. Can I use it in the same CONTEXT?
Nous avons froid/ ils ont froid/ elle a froid????
In the test the sentence reads "I left for about 15 days." I put Je suis partie pour quinzaine de jours". They say the correct answer is "Je suis partie une quinzaine de jours." Could I have used pendant or durant?
In this situation, how is the partitive used? Is it optional? E.G.
C'est un bon gâteau. OR C'est de bon gâteau. OR C'est du bon gâteau. ??
Merci d'avance .

What is the term for seats in coach?

I would love to be able to REPLAY short segments of this piece so well delivered by Gruff. This way, I can practice words and shorter sections at a time until I gain confidence with both pronunciation and meaning. I was disappointed to find, that I was committed to hearing the play in its entirety (which is quite long), with only pauses available.
Thanks Kwiziq for ending my search for reading and listening material online.
