The question was 'are we going out'.    Why is the answer on sort and not on va sort

Just wondering why convenir is conjugated with vous as 'vous convient'.  Shouldn't it be vous convenez?  Please clarify.  Merci!

Hi there - this topic is giving me the biggest trouble. Crafting questions!

Is there any advice or guidance or on how to approach this? I cannot seem to connect with this at all. Thanks!

What is the rule for using "au-dessous/dessus de" rather than "sous/sur"?

I've been told that you should use "dans" when there is a roof, and "sur" when there isn't. So "on the bus/plane" is "dans l'autobus/avion" and "in the fields" is "sur les champs". Is this a good general rule?

Are there different contexts where one can use "veut" instead of the "avoir envie de"?

For instance, why can't i say "je veut le chocolat"? When do i get to say "j'ai envie du chocolat"? 

Is the pronunciation of "nombreuses années" in the first example correct? To my ear it sounds odd to emphasize the "es" when making the liaison.

Why do you need to put "l" before on" in this question? 

Why can't the sentence read "Il est important q'on agisse de façon?"

Quand je fais les dictées en classe, le prof indique toujours les marques de ponctuation. Donc, je suis énervé quand on ne le dit pas. Est-ce que c'est normal de les indiquer, ou non?

I result I got was 'je ne sais pas dans quelle direction tourner'.  However, the Kwizig translation is 'je ne sais plus où donner de la tête' in the excercise!  I'm confused?  Bobbie L
