A beautiful and fun exercise! Merci beaucoup. Loved it
Mélanie joue plus que Karine aux cartes. which is marked wrong seems to me to be just an inversion of Melanie joue aux cartes plus que Karine which is correct. Is this just one of those things the French dont do, or is there an underlying reason why the first version is wrong, please?
Just as an aside - I find this lesson format (the line by line parsing of the little story) really great from a learning perspective!
normally we use the "pire"(which means worse) for comparative the adjectives) but can we use it like that
je nage pire que toi=I swimworse than you
does it works like that?
In “dont les noms sont tout aussi appétissants”, why doesn’t “tout” agree with the subject (“les noms”)? I was expecting to see “tous”.
The sentence asks how one would translate: "If she could fly, she would go to the moon." ?
My sense is that this is misleading because "if she could fly" is conditional not past continuous. Shouldn't it read "If she flew, she would go to the moon" to avoid confusion?
Thanks, Kalpana

Hi guys,
I have some questions. Hope you all can help me to understand.
While it is clear that stress pronoun is always after another noun, how do we decide the order if there are 2 stress pronouns together?
Is it
“toi et moi” or “moi et toi”
“toi et elle” or “elle et toi”
“moi et elle” or “elle et moi”
Is it the same as English when first-person related pronouns always come last (You and I, him and me) and second-person related pronouns always come first (you and him, You and I)?
Thank you in advance.
I'm a bit confused by the meaning of this sentence (the temporality). If it refers to a one time thing (not a habit) then is it referring to future actions ? i.e. is it an equivalent of "I will make the bed once you have gotten up ?" Or does it mean that I am right now doing the bed but I have started some time in the past after you have already gotten out of bed ?
I think that there has been a mis-type - the subtitle for this vocabulary list should be “... less common...” not “...less commons...”
