Would an alternative translation to the above be: "It was nice yesterday"    ?

Could I use c'est quand instead of c'est la que to mean "that is when" ?   Sincerely Una

Selon Grevisse, on n'est pas obligé d'accorder "on" au féminin ou au pluriel quand le sujet est bien défini et féminin ou pluriel (voire les deux).

I was expecting to see “j’ai encore retardée mes achats” because the speaker is female. Does the exercise use “retardé” because the object of this part of the sentence is “achats” (a masculine noun), and not the female speaker?

I agree with the Kwiziq team members and some others that the words all sound clear, with my connection anyway. After I have completed the exercise and re-listened to the whole passage it magically becomes very clear. My only query is the word "honnêteté" where, despite numerous listens, I can't hear all the syllables, and I was wondering whether it is usually pronounced as spelled "honnêteté", or in common usage is simply pronounced "honnêté"

I never know what to do when I've been writing informally and suddenly find that I have to use first person plural pronouns other than the subject pronoun.  How would you say something like "We fed our pets" or "They will find us if we stay here" in casual French?

How does the scoring work on these exercises. I know i  got several things wrong, but I would have thought it was better than 1 out of 75. Please advise.

If these phrases have the same meaning, as noted in the lesson, why was answer deemed incorrect?

Just fyi, the translation of “N’oublie pas de remuer” reads “N’oublie pas de remuer” instead of “Don’t forget to stir”.

Hello,

I know that the reflexive verb introduction is in the A1 level but, when should one learn about the passive and subjective  pronominals?

Thanks
