Christmas in the mountains (B1)Bonjour Madame Cécile !
While attempting this challenge, I faced a few difficulties which I would like to ask here-
1.C’est un endroit magique au milieu des montagnes, mais ça manque de transports en commun !
In this phrase, why has “ça” been used ? We need to talk about the ‘châlet’ so can “il” not be used ?
2. D'abord, je prendrai l'avion jusqu'à la grande ville la plus proche, qui est ‘quand même à’ quarante kilomètres du châlet !
Madame, what is the usage of the expression-‘quand même à’ ?
This expression was used in this exercise to mean -still but what are its other uses ?
3. Mais je ne pourrai pas conduire jusqu'au châlet lui-même.
Why is lui-même used here, shouldn’t it be ‘moi-même’ ? As, in the sense of “ I wouldn’t be able to drive myself till the chalet’ ?
Merci beaucoup pour votre aide et réponse.
Joyeux Nöel à vous !
Hi, just a note, in English we’d never say “Exams revisions”. We’d say “Exam revision”, even when referencing revision covering multiple exams.
I do not understand why appelée was used, and not appelé, and I do not think the explanation below is correct. Le Passé Composé here has nothing to do with Emma’s gender, as it surely has to agree with il. And why, then, would the suggested answers use téléphoné, and not téléphonée ?
Please could please explain to me more on how ''en'' is used to replace plural items

I'm wondering about this sentence: "Des festivites incontournables qui prennent habituellement fin a Mardi Gras, soit la veille du..."
What is the reason for the subjunctive verb tense of "soit" toward the end of this statement?
what is the plural of le crayon in french
-cer verbs become ç before -ons
Is there any exceptions？
