HI Carol,
I am not sure I understand your question completely but in the case of 'célébrer' , the second -e takes a grave accent to match its pronunciation in the following forms of the present tense -
je célèbre
tu célèbres
il/elle/on célèbre
ils/elles célèbrent
But
nous célébrons
vous célébrez
Hope this helps!
Perhaps the rule for this lesson needs to state that 'in the case of 'célébrer' , the second -e takes a grave accent
I was wondering about this too, but I am guessing the space in the phrase e-er can account for more than one letter?
