Wow, I just must say that this one in every sentence had idiomatique phrases of which I've never heard, or seen introduced in any of your lessons. I'm not sure of the value of having to make so many guesses on what I'm hearing, since context gives almost no clue with those type of phrases. Isn't the point of these to recognize what you've learned?
Marie était (l'imparfait, être) réveillée (past participle, singular, fem)par les oiseaux tous les matins. Why not use the infinitive rather than past participle? or should it be passe compose?
I am confused. Sometimes Ayez is used sometimes Ayons is used.
For example "Ayez confiance mes amis" I was corrected from Ayons
But here is one example Ayons foi en notre force .
Is there a rule or we just have to know, like vocabulary
I see that this is a reversed question- but what is the reversal? Tu penses en quoi?
Bonjour! Could the interviewer have answered “si, vraiment” when James said “n’importe quoi”? Also, I infer that “n’importe quoi” is something you’d say when trying to be humble. What’s a good equivalent in English? I don’t exactly understand the expression. Merci!
Based on the user questions here as well as on some other lessons, it seems Kwiziq would be well served to have some learners review the lessons to see if they are clear enough. I know I've seen quite a few pages that were unclear due to insufficient explanation or examples. (I just finished 4 semesters of French, so I'm not really learning but trying not to let it slip away. Still, I have noticed lessons that aren't as clear and/or complete as they could be.)
(l'opera) dont le sujet se trouve être un soulevement (des Napolitians contre leurs opresseur) ...how does this translate I wonder...seems like too many words to me...? The opera in which the subject finds themselves/him/itself being an uprising the neapolatians against their opressers...? Shouldn't it be: The opera in which the subect finds themselves in an uprising...A against B?
Very grateful for a better translation of this sentence!

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.
For translating "He must tidy his room" in a specific context about someone, will this be the correct translation?
"Il lui faut ranger sa chambre"
