But the French does not specify the location so the translation can only be "Lucas took his sister's new wardrobe up" - not upstairs. Perhaps it was up a ramp or a hill. Since that translation was not offered surely only the one answer should be allowed.

Translation of Oh! J'ai regardé ça aussi hier.

Two of the three options for this were "Oh! I watched this one yesterday too" and "Oh! I watched it yesterday too." I selected the first option, because "ça" is a demonstrative pronoun, not a personal pronoun. But the microquiz said that "I watched IT" was the correct selection. I was happier when I went to an explanation, because there, the translation was "I watched THAT." Should "ça" ever be translated as "it"? I'm sure this is nitpicky, but I'm a linguist fluent in Spanish, and the details matter to me!

Thank you.

Regarding the question « I am going to Lucie’s house « from the lesson and the video included in the lesson, I understand chez to mean home and maisonand maison to mean house. So why is my answer nous avons à la maison incorrect in the test? The answer was chez in the test

Marrons, marrons d'Inde

Les marrons are sweet chestnuts; horse chestnuts, popularly known as conkers, are marrons d'Inde. They are of a similar appearance but from different trees. Also, I wouldn't recommend eating horse chestnuts.

question on example with "se faire dorer la pilule"

Is this translation a mistake? It says this means to sunbathe, but the dictionary says it is to sugarcoat...? Merci!
