On a writing exercise (Cette Semaine) was asked to translate : On Monday, I went shopping with my son. My response - Lundi, j'ai fait les magasins avec mon fils. It didn’t match answers given - Lundi, je suis allé faire les magasins avec mon fils. Is there anything wrong with my answer? Went shopping is translated similarly here. 

The clues are very confusing. Why write U.S. right away as a clue. I thought that was what the interlocutor actually said. So although I wrote tout de suite initially I corrected it given the clue.

If I recall, the hint was to use the term, 'Ivory Coast', which tricked me up.  I normally would use 'Côte d'Ivoire'.  I opted to accept the hint, which was not accepted.  I felt duped by the hint.  Perhaps others fell into this same trap.  Take a look at it.

Si les étudiants sont répartis dans le monde entier, pourquoi l'école ne sélectionne-t-elle pas un contenu accessible à tous ? Pourquoi l'école sélectionne-t-elle un contenu dont l'accès est connu pour être limité géographiquement ?

C'est possible de rendre la vidéo accessible aux États-Unis?

shouldn't it be "toutes les glaces" as its femine plural

Since other French speaking countries use words like septante,octante and nonante it would be nice to mention them in the article. I get that you don't want to confuse beginners but acknowledging their existence for those that might have an interest into learning those alternative words might have been neat.

Not really a question and more like a suggestion.

Les jambes, elles, étaient vêtues de collants de danseuse, blancs scintillants, que chaussaient de délicats talons hauts, noirs et fins. 

...are the high heels the subject and chaussaient the verb and they're inverted?  And the "que" that precedes them is referring back to "les jambes?"

My immediate instinct was to use "Attention ! Le mélange ne devrait pas trop chaud," but it was marked incorrect. In this particular context, is there a hard reason why it is better to use "Le mélange ne doit pas être trop chaud" instead?
