Could anyone explain the use of 'nous' in the second example but not in the first. I would see the constructions as similar.

Is the use of 'nous' in these cases optional?

Thanks guys

Hi. There used to be a button to repeat the exercise once you'd finished it? At this level it's really useful to be able to do that.

I was marked only partially correct in answering the question: Another way of saying "Vous vous souvenez des îles Cyclades" is "Vous ________ îles Cyclades"

I answered “Vous vous rappelez des îles Cyclades” and was informed that Vous vous rappeles des was another possibility.

Why do you not receive full credit if an answer is correct regardless of other options in this case?

In conjugation tables, I have not seen this ending with vous.  Could you please address this issue?

Thank you.  

....since it' not implied "brand new"

Hi,

I see here that assez is used to mean "not enough", but doesn't it also mean "that much"? 

Ils n'ont pas assez d'argent. -> Couldn't it also mean that they don't have that much money? Not with the implication that is not enough for a specific purpose, but rather not that much in general.

How to tell them apart?

Entre les deux mots ces-ci, lequel est mieux? 

Grosse

ou

Grande

pour décrire sa taille de quelqu'une?

I believe "avant que" takes the subjunctive.  Since this is a memory from the past, shouldn't we use the past subjunctive?

Im just a bit confused since before i could always say Le ....... But now, they are correcting me, just because of the ''le''. 

This never happended before, please explain to me, why this is happening?

... car le bureau de poste local n'offrait plus ce service. 

In this section of the sentence the 'S' at the end of 'pluS' is pronounced. This seems at odds with the lesson 'Ne ... plus = no more/no longer' which states: -  

Note that when plus has a negative meaning (no more), you don't pronounce the final 's', except when you do the liaison with a vowel following ('z' sound).

... in the exercise plus is followed by 'ce' and 'ce' does not start with a vowel and as such should not be pronounced?
