Not sure about this.. I have it wrong but, I suspect for the wrong reason
"________ à l'école." You must go to school.(HINT: use "falloir")Il faut aller à l'écoleIf you are asking YOU must, surely that demands Tu or vous.. il faut, ok, but surely this must then be il faut que tu ailles à l'école?
The quiz question was Lucas a monté la nouvelle armoire de sa sœur
How is this different from Lucas a monté les escaliers?
In otherwords, why is "Lucas climbed on top of his sister's new wardrobe" incorrect?
Thank you
Google translates "tu dois du repos" as "you need some rest." But it sounds like Kwiziq only wants us to use devoir before an infinitive. However, the lesson only says "sometimes you can use devoir" without any explanation or examples. Despite the fact that multiple people have been complaining about this for years!
I think also the English translation might be tripping me up in certain instances. Like "you need to take a day off" in English uses the infinitive verb "to take" but in French it's "you need " which is a noun. It would be nice if the lesson explained that.
I hate having to just memorize the quiz maker's answer without understanding why Kwiziq thinks it's correct.
I can hardly hear the "ne" in this sentence.
Is the "ne" sound sometimes dropped in real spoken French?
Hi there I am wondering if you could explain why the Lui is used in l'accordeon lui touchait le menton instead of L'accordeon qui touchait le menton ? So it would literally translate to " the accordion to her touched her chin "
Sincerely

The lesson says quelques can translate as "some" and I’d be interested to know the situation in which you’d use it rather than "des"? Does it emphasise the quantity more?
