He must tidy his room

For translating "He must tidy his room" in a specific context about someone, will this be the correct translation?

I just can't get this right --- Jean and I are friends

Whatever I choose its wrong so there's some weird little French nuance going on … in English you could say ' You are friends' or 'They are friends'

Direct object sentence

Hello,

I am doing the A1 reading passage for the Cher journal and the sentence I'm confused on is. Il me reste des crosissants du weekend. 

I know il me reste is a direct object sentence but not sure how the meaning of the word reste is used here.

I think it means he has leftover croissants?


Thanks

Nicole

contraction rules

Hi! I was translating the sentence "Marie invited Julie to go to a concert. 

And the right answer was "Marie a invité Julie à un concert". 

Can I know the reason for which "à" and "un" are not contracted here please? 

Thank you in advance.

parce que je ne peux pas manger de salade sans pain

I can hardly hear the "ne" in this sentence.

Is the "ne" sound sometimes dropped in real spoken French?

Multi choice

Hi, I don’t understand why one of the options is right or wrong.  Too many choices make this a difficult lesson.

Are a) and or b) correct? If not why?

a) Je dormais quand tu m'as interrompu OR b) J'étais dormir quand tu... In sentence b) is être redundant as the verb dormir can be used?
