I’ve lived in France a little while now and for « On the floor, the tiles are blue like the ocean » I automatically wrote « Au sol, le carrelage est bleu comme l’océan », which was accepted, but in final translation I see « Sur le sol, le carreaux sont bleus comme l’océan ». Is mine more a spoken translation ?
Can anybody help me convert a French verb into a French noun? Is there any particular rule or grammatical tips or tricks that I can change a french verb into a french noun? Please help me.

I have put a few difficult lessons in my notebook, but I've rarely tested them. I now see that as a premium member I can have multiple notebooks, but I'm not sure of the benefit. So I'd like to know from users: how do you make use of notebooks in your studies? Do you find it useful to use multiple notebooks? If so, how do you divide your notebooks?
I'm very confused with devoir and which tense to use now, as your lesson said devoir in imperfect meant "supposed to do" and perfect meant "had to do", yet you use the imperfect to say "had to do" here ? Can you please explain and also explain what that lesson actually means as it doesn't seem to be relevant?

I did read the lesson on past participle agreement with avoir but am still not sure why the 's' is needed in the above.
Why did it change from "on" to "nous" in the last sentence? Is it just more common with commands?
Referencing the lesson: 'Using le, la, l', les before nouns when generalising (definite articles)' why is 'Salut les filles' correct as 'les filles' refers to a specific group and not to a group in general. Thank you
Is "mes vestes légères" the liaison between vestes légères usual ?
