très difficile, je ne comprends pas Jean-François

hi,

I was wondering whats the difference between using the verb Je veux and J'ai besoin de nouvelle voiture? I thought that it can mean the same thing when using Je veux nouvelle voiture.

thanks

I thought the feminine of neuf was nouvelle, but it seems to be neuve. Can you explain please?

The lesson indicateed Don't be afraid as "N'aie pas peur" but in test this was not accepted, only "N"ayez pas peur"

Is there a lesson on this apparent "être + [date]" phase? Can I say "je suis 2 décember" seemingly meaning "today is 2 December"? 

Cannot find anything on this topic on the Internet :( Thank you!

While the lesson is clear that the le passé composé is used here to use depuis for negation, I'm not sure how to ask the question that leads to this response: 

For example: When was the last time you your mother saw you? 

- Is it: Quelle était la dèrniere fois/Depuis quand ta mere t'a vu/te vois?

In either the case the answer would be in passé composé: for instance: Elle ne m'a pas vu depuis longtemps

Thanks!
