ne explicative mistake & mood mistake by meI am bring this up because I am desperately trying to find a site where I can check my written French. One I recently discovered https://bonpatron.com/ seemed promising at first.
In a quiz question here on the lesson topic above, multiple choice, my answer was marked wrong:
#1 Nous sommes entrés sans que vous ne nous entendez. (wrong, and I now see why)
The correct answer was:
#2 Nous sommes entrés sans que vous nous entendiez.
I can understand why my answer is wrong, based on the lesson.
I checked out all four sentences at Bon Patron including the last two
#3 Nous sommes entrés sans vous nous entendre.
#4 Nous sommes entrés sans vous nous entendiez.
For all four sentences, I was given a grammar score of 100% on Bon Patron.
So I am thinking that Bon Patron is not at all helpful, unless there is some really obscure reason that the three wrong answers here might be acceptable under some obscure circumstance, which I doubt.
Writing in French (to express my own thoughts) is a real challenge for me. At some point I have to go beyond set quizzes (and in no way is this meant as a criticism of Kwiziq) and use what I've learned here, so, for example, I can write correct French to French friend in France.
Anyone have any helpful ideas for me?
Thank you, thank you, thank you, if you do !

In the example when it says il pense à elle and it means he’s thinking of her. But in another example it says je parle de lui which means I speak of him. So de and à both mean of in these examples so I will as wondering when I would use à and when I would use de.
Whether a definite or indefinite article
Bonjour les gars et experts
Dans la frase suivant? 'ils se sont dit que', pourquoi il n y a pas d'agreement entre 'être' et 'dire'?
Je pense que 'ils se sont' est plural, donc 'dit' devrait s'écrire 'dits' avec un s, n'est pas?
