I am struggling to see why you have suggested one can use i or y but when I use the y in the answer of the verb, it is wrong.
In the first line, Le pourquoi du comment translates to the whys and hows. Shouldnt le pourquoi du comment be "The why of the how". Please explain the difference between these things. Merci
How are these graded? My answers were mostly correct, maybe just getting the punctuation wrong or a few minor mistakes here and there. But it says I got 0 out of 60. Is it looking for letter-by-letter accuracy, including punctuation?
So, for words that end in -re, we drop the "d" as well?

The lesson above states:
Les enfants auront suivi le guide. -> Le guide aura été suivi par les enfants.
But this answer was marked incorrect:
Write "Laura will be followed by her friends." : Laura ________ ses amies.(HINT: Use "suivre")sera suivie par
aura été suivi par (wrong)
Aren't they the exact same construction? So why use sera here? The passive voice has been the hardest aspect for me to understand since it seems so arbitrary. Help!
