The question:
Nous sommes partis _________ au cas où.
We left early just in case.
I answered: "en avance juste"
....and was marked incorrect for adding the "juste".
Could someone please explain why my answer was wrong?

Why not "juste" au cas où?
This question relates to:French lesson "Expressing timeliness in French - late/early/on time - general"
Asked 3 years ago
Oops..... I realise that it was marked wrong because I left out "early" (en avance) not because I added "juste".

Your answer isn't wrong, and you are free to add "juste". This possibility simply wasn't added to the possible correct answers.

Hi,
I also added "juste" at the end of "en avance" -- to go with the "au cas ou" part. Why is that marked incorrect? Going forward, it would be good to include that as a possible correct answer, no?
Thanks
David
