I am confused about when I can use duquel ,delaquelle etc instead of dont 

Should “tes chaussettes de sport qui sentent mauvais” be “tes chaussettes de sport qui sentent mauvaises” so that “mauvaises” agrees with “chaussettes”?

Can you also have "Je n'ai pas du tout été surprise"?

HI,

I am understanding the usage of the reflexive verbs as well as reciprocal but I had saw something about passive pronominals would that be something for A2 I had seen it somewhere and now I can't seem to find it.

Thanks

The conjugation that you provide includes the following line:

il / elle / on    est apparu(e)(s)

Under which circumstances would it be valid to have "est apparus" or "est apparues"? Or is the "(s)" redundant?

Hello,

I'd like to know why the C1 quizzes focus so extensively on the Passé Simple. The tense is never used in speaking, (except perhaps in a stilted academic discourse), and is encountered primarily when reading. 

For example, on a recent C1 quiz, seven of the ten questions were on the Passé Simple. I'd rather have my quizzes focus more on idiomatic expressions. Instead, the passé simple questions come up over and over again, even when I score a perfect "10" on a given quiz.

Thanks,

Greg

Hi Kwiziq team,

Why not "their lives" here:

Thank you

Hi, in “d'où l'on pouvait admirer la vallée du Rouvres en contrebas,” is the “l’” in “l’on” purely for euphonics (i.e. it carries no meaning)?
