Why "les dents" and not "mes dents"?

Why is it "Je me brosse LES dents" instead of "MES dents"? If they are MY teeth, why not "mes dents"? Or, if maybe I have a child I'm teaching good dental hygiene, "Je te brosse tes dents."

Getting 100% at level B2I seem to be stuck at 99.90% at level B2. my last 10 tests have all been tens. Obviously I will make a mistake eventually and I do not want to start C1 tests untill I get 100% at B2. I already have 100% at A0, A1, A2, B1. So, how many more tests must I take to reach 100% at level B2

Why "bien" is used to describe certain nouns (instead of an adjective).....When one is expressing satisfaction with something, "bien" is used. Ce film est bien.... C'est bien, je suis heureuse avec cela.

Pas mal de ...Bonjour, I've heard that one can use "pas mal de ..." to indicate "quite a lot", and I just want to confirm this is correct. For example: "Il y avait pas mal de monde à la fête". Merci ! Kathy

Statement about collective nouns in EnglishCollective nouns, such as family, team, and company are singular. The pronoun that would refer to these particular nouns is "it." A speaker may change to "they" but the speakers would be referring to family members, players, or employees. One would right, "A spokesperson for the company announced that it is profitable."

J'achèterais v J'achèterai

I notice that Madelein has asked the exactly same question that I was going to ask. However, I'm still confused over this ... so if "I would buy a house" is translated as "J'achèterai une maison" how would you then translate "I will buy a house"
