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

I thought the French spelling for "weekend" was normally "week-end". Has this changed to "weekend" in recent times?
Why doesn't the phrase, "I wondered", not agree with the speaker? I wrote, "donc je me suis dite" but the text doesn't have the verb agree with the female speaker as it corrected me with, "donc je me suis dit".
Hello,

I am unclear on the meaning of two phrases within this test (Google translate didn't help too much)
1. un coup de soleil carabiné
2. sache que j'en bave vraiment
Could someone explain the meaning of these? Thanks
Bonjour les gars et les experts
Au sujet de la frase, 'j'ai dû le lire trop vite!'
Serait-ce possible de dire aussi 'je dois l'avoir lu trop vite!'?
An alternative given for "You finally got up" was "Tu es enfin levé". I thought it would be "tu t'es enfin levé" (as the reflexive verbe is "se lever"). Just wondering if this was a typo, or am I missing something? Thanks.
I put "Elle" because it is a specific house, but the website says the answere should be "C'est"..why?
I don't see in the lesson where it explains when to use the subjunctive conjugation for commands versus standard imperatif. Thanks!
Is the above sentence missing a "faire"? I'm wondering if it should say "nous lui voulions faire du mal"?
