My audio stops at privilégiés and the rest of the sentence is absent.  The play button is not on pause but rather play.  If I select play, the recording starts again from the top.

"Ce soir, je fais à dîner."  When I first read this example, I read the word, "diner" as a noun, (As in "Ce soir je fais le diner"). 

But after reading through the questions and seeing the example, "Je fais a manger", I suspect that it is really the infinitve form of the verb, "diner" = "to eat dinner".

This is a new expression for me. Am I understanding correctly that one can say, for example:

"Je fais a coudre" = I am sewing.

"Il fait a dessiner" = He is drawing.

"Nous faisons a dejeuner" = We are making lunch.

"Les enfants font a nettoyer leur chambre" = The children are cleaning up their room"

-?

And, I suspect that this expression would only be used when there is a concrete or tangible result of the action, ie."Vous faites a nager" might not work.

Thanks in advance for any explanation.

Is there a lesson on this? If not, it might be helpful to add one. 

Shouldn't the past participle agree with the subject in this?

So, formally, il faut ranger ta chambre can also be written as il te faut ranger la/ta chambre, right?

Why isn't 'une form d'identité' correct?

Hi, it's not clear to me from the instructions whether you're meant to attempt the dictees after only one listen, or whether it's better to listen more than once. Is there a guideline here, or is it just left to the student to choose?

Thanks

This lesson is on the A2 listening practice list but is shown as a B2 level exercise. Either it's mislabeled or it's in the wrong place. The 5th lesson below this one (Dispute entre frère et sœur) has no level designation in the title, and the 2nd lesson under that one (En gardant mes neveux) is labeled as a B1 level exercise.

I also checked the A1 listening practice list and there are several lessons on that list that have no level designation.

This seems more like a content issue than a Help Desk problem.
