In the phrase "j'ai pris la petite creature dans mes bras et je l'ai ramenée chez elle" you use the pronouns la and chez elle meaning it is a feminine dog. In the beginning of the story you use the pronoun "un chien" meaning a masculine dog. I am confused with the pronouns used to describe the dog.
Thank you,

This is very confusing. I have gotten it wrong in quizzes twice because I used a singular verb with the "plural" noun as in Mes vacances coûte.....please explain why I should use a plural verb? In the lesson all the examples show a plural noun (French style) with a singular verb. And, in the examples there are only singular verbs with the plural nouns.
Hi, why does “the que before the penser” (b) & (c) become “a quoi after the penser” (a)?
(a) “Et vous, vous pensez QUOI des selfies ?”
(b) “Et vous, QUE pensez-vous des selfies ?”
(c) “Et vous, QU'est-ce que vous pensez des selfies ?”
When do I use j'ai or je suis because they both mean the same thing so I don't know when's the time to use which I have
Bonjour forum et les experts
Au sujet de la parte de la phrase, 'dont il avait pu admirer les grandes percées' , je me demande si c'est également correcte de l'écrire, 'dont il avait été capable d'admirer les grandes percées' ?
I was how to rephrase "Je me souviens de votre frere" and I answered "Je me rappelle de votre frere". This was scored as incorrect, with the correct response given as "Je me rappelle votre frere". Aren't both "se rappeler de" and "se rappeler" correct?
For the question 'In spite of herself Katia started to hope' I used 'en dépit d'elle'. This was marked wrong and malgré given as the correct answer. What am I missing here? The lesson says that you can use either.
Why does the question asking for the conjugation of s'asseoir mark the answer "Nous nous assoyons" in favour of "Nous nous asseyons" when according to the LESSON on this subject provides both conjugations ?
Regarding 'Ils ________ pendant les vacances." you give the answer as 'auront grandi'. Reverso gives both an avoir and an etre form forr the future anterior of grandir. I assumed as this was intransiitive it would be the etre form?
