French language Q&A Forum

in my gcse book the  english - i wanted to buy some trousers but they didn't suit me is translated as 

j'ai voulu acheté un pantalon mais il ne m'allait pas .

As this is a one off occasion why is the imperfect of aller used and not the perfect 

thanks

Rex reminds Anna of her dog & Rex reminds Anna of his dog

Both appear to translate as Rex rappelle son chien à Anna

What is the best way to avoid this ambiguity?

Since the beginning of the festivities is a precise and limited event, I thought this would use passe compose "ont commencees." Can someone help me understand why this is imperfait?

And the last sentence: J'ai toujour trouve ca magique," I had thought this would be imparfait since it's ongoing and indefinite.

Est ce que on peut utiliser " aller à" dans un contexte different ou un temp different comme suit:

example, puis - on dire " ça me Irai" ou " ça ne me allé pas" ?

I understand the lesson pretty well, but a question on pronunciation. Is the audio correct when it pronounces the sentence "J'attends plus de mes parents" with "plus" as [plu] instead of [plus]? It seems like this could be confusing in spoken French, in that it might be mistaken for "Je [n']attends plus de mes parents," but maybe the "de" makes it obvious that this is not a ne...plus construction where the "ne" is simply dropped/implied? (Maybe there's a lesson focusing on the pronunciation of "plus," but I've not seen it yet.)
