I thought the marking was a bit odd as I have underlined the words I got wrong and one was a verb avertir I used in lieu of prèvenir?
- Bonjour Sandra ! J'ai besoin de ton aide. - Qu'est-ce que je peux faire pour toi ? - Je dois partir(quitter) à midi parce que ma fille est malade. Est-ce que tu peux prévenir(avertir) Jean-Pierre ? - Pas de problème ! J'ai une réunion avec lui avant mon déjeuner avec Marielle. - Merci beaucoup ! Lucie a de la fièvre et je suis un peu inquiète. - Je comprends. À demain !'Je me souviens encore de la première fois' : could toujours be used as an alternative to encore here ?
I see this is the subject of a question and answer but I don’t think the response is adequate. The text of the lesson states that the meaning depends on the context. Surely the context means that ‘Bien sûr qu’on se déteste’ means ‘of course we hate each other’ as the correct response - because I want sort of context would tow people say to another we hates ourselves? I think this needs fixing or the lesson should at least be clear that both translations are possible.
