French language Q&A Forum

Hello! 

Throughout the writing activity where I described the boys neighborhood, I continued to use "Tu" instead of "On" when it asked me to type "When you want to go out, you have a lot of choices!" 

The correct answer according to the computer was "Quand on veut sortir, on a beaucoup de choix !" 

Can someone explain why On is used instead of Tu?

Thanks!

What is more commonly used in French - aimer or plaire?

Why can I not copy the text and drag the audio slider?!?!? Because of this I will be using other sites for listening practice. 

In a recent French reading practice Port Grimaud is described as “ un ancien village typique”. The side-by side translation describes it as “a typical old village”. The lesson on the use of ancien tells us that when used before a noun it means former therefore why is it translated as old in this context?

Hello,

When I looked up crayons in WordReference it showed "crayon gras" but not "crayon à la cire." Would crayons gras work here?

Does the same rule explained in this lesson also apply for Lorsque and Alors que ?

'Lorsque je serai vieux, j'aurai une maison.' [When I AM old, I will have a house.]

'Tu feras tes devoirs alors que je ferai la vaisselle.' [You will do your homework while I DO the dishes.]
