I'm leaving my place.Bonjour Jehan,
Both 'sors'and 'pars' are accepted as correct answers.
I had a look at your test history and I can see why your answers weren't accepted. I have emailed you a response via our Helpdesk. You should receive an email shortly.
Bonne journée !
Hi Jehan,
If you had written "Je sors de ma maison" that would be correct.
But when you write "Je sors de chez moi" this is incorrect because "chez" is a preposition and so this construction would have two prepositions (de and chez) one after the other.
It may however be acceptable to write "Je sors de chez-moi" where "chez-moi" is a noun?

Hope this helps.

Thanks Jim. That is a bit confusing, but certainly makes in much clearer now. Thank you
