Should "Montre-moi les mains!" really be considered wrong? I understand you put that in this lesson as an example of reducing ambiguity, with "tes mains", but I definitely don't see it as something to be taken as a wrong answer in a quiz.

If I'm correct, we do the exact same thing in Spanish, and both "Muéstrame tus manos" y "Muéstrame las manos" would be correct. There is no ambiguity whatsoever (i.e. no sane person would wonder whose hands we're asking the person to show). Is it really really different in French?

I mean, it is one thing to try to get students to answer what you taught them, and a very different thing to reject right answers (especially when this very same lesson covers using definite articles for this). 

It would be so helpful with exercises like this if we could slow the playback down. I play it 20 times and still struggle at times. 

Does anyone know of any websites where you can paste the sentence in and adjust the playback?

Thanks

An old castle is still an old castle.  If it was an old castle, that implies it is something else now but formerly it was an old castle.  It was an old castle that we just saw OR what we are looking at not was an old castle but no longer is'

Serious ambiguity in the question. Either answer could be correct depending on context

One of the fill-in-the-blanks exercises has a line, "En novembre, je fais antichambre."

What does this mean, (as it's quite foreign to my American sensibilities)??
