Would the meaning change if it began with "Je rêvais toujours..." to indicate a continuing/ongoing state of mind in the past?

Why is it not 'qui ne la mangeraient pas'...?

Why does the hint say "Note that with avoir as an auxiliary, past participles never agree with the subject of the verb?

I recently went over the lesson on cases in which the participles do agree, so maybe it should say "almost never"?

Special cases when the past participle agrees (in number & gender) when used with 'avoir' in the compound past in French (Le Passé Composé)

One thing I had a problem with in this dictation was the reference to 'tu'. Who's she talking to? If this was made clearer in the intro or title, it might help a bit?

"Quelque chose te plait-il ?"

 Il se lave does that become se lave-t-il?  And while we're at it, il adore becomes adore-t-il, but il t'adore becomes  t'il -t-adore??

Elle ne le fait pas, bien qu'elle le puisse.

Why is it "bien qu'elle le puisse" and not "bien qu'elle puisse"?

If I wanted to write the sentence below in French, could I, using après que? Or would it have to be reworded? Would I still use the indicative, even though the action has not yet taken place and is uncertain, or is this a case where après que might take the subjunctive?

“After you arrive/have arrived home safely, then and only then will I go to bed.”

how do you type a circumflex - I looked this up and it said control-shift, the symbol above the 6 and then the letter.  That didn't work
