I am confused about how to say have and when it is used.  In English I use it to show  possession I have. I can also use it to ask for something I will have (asking for something as in food or object)  Can you help with my confusion.

Hello, I put 'suis-tu' in the first sentence, as 'have you been following' is the present perfect continuous, but it was marked as wrong.  The answer in French, 'as-tu suivi', made it seem that the event was already in the past. Which is correct?

Thanks a lot.

My kwiz had the following sentence, but the instruction did not provide an example of a pronoun coming before an infinitive, just an infinitive (or noun) coming after "il faut."

Il faut nous faisons nos valises immediatement.  

 NEVER MIND:  this was one of the wrong answers.  Sorry!

There are mistakes in your translation:  car instead of parce que

I agree with Patrick K. The recording is of low quality (not just a different voice). I don't get an echo exactly, but it sounds like it was recorded in a bathroom, or like a phone or computer mic was used instead of a separate microphone. I had to use headphones and really "tendre l'oreille". I hope this is just a one-off and all the recordings don't become like this...

Yes agree with Frank C. I am level C1 and this was difficult for me. Lots of idioms / expressions, the use of subjonctif, etc. 

Most of my mistakes here happened because I did not know whether the place was a city, a state, or a country.

It would be helpful if quizzes included a hint indicating this.

example from this lesson - Et leurs anniversaires ? - C'est bientôt !
contradicts with example from another lesson about c'est vs il/elle est - Où est ta tasse? Elle est sur la table. (rule: use il/elle est when giving opinions/short statements about specific things.)
"C'est" vs "Il/Elle est" to say it is/she is/he is in French


leur anniversaires - we are specifically talking about their aniversaries. so shouldn't we use il/elle est ? or maybe ils/elles sont ?
