Why isn't nouvelle année not in caps? 

Does the placement of 'Du tout' affect the overall meaning of the sentence? Could it be placed in different places to give the sentence different meanings? Are there any rules of where (before or after what) we are allowed to place 'du tout' ? How does the placement of 'du tout' change when there are prepositions within the sentence ?

I look in the examples, and see 'du tout' placed after adjectives and nouns, does that negate other parts of the sentence?

This was a great exercise. Just wanted to flag that sometimes after submitting responses, no corrections displayed and I was therefore unable to mark myself.

I got this exercise wrong on the qwiz, but I don't see any explanation in the A2 Stress Pronouns lesson on why you would use "elle" rather than "lui." Isn't "lui" supposed to be for either gender?

1________ devez prendre une décision. You and she need to make a decision.

Toi et lui was marked as incorrect, and Toi et elle was marked as the correct answer, but I don't understand why.

Nous mangeons du riz in negative

I used the verb s'éveiller for "wake up", but it was not given as one of the alternatives.  I thought "se lever" meant "to get up (out of bed)", rather than specifically to wake up.  Can you clarify?

In the 2nd quiz on plus-que-parfait (La soiree de mes Reves), the 4th blank from the END requires us to conjugate faciliter in the plus-que-parfait tense. 

According to me, it should be : ce qui nous avions facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite); however the solutions key is showing it to be nous avait facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite). 

Can you please explain why we are using the 3rd person singular form of conjugation of the auxiliary verb in imparfait (il /elle / on avait) rather than that with nous (avions) here ?

Do you use c'est if a partitive article follows as well? 

In this statement, the correct answer is to use c'est instead of il/elle. Why is that?
