Question in general: How does one complete the French accents necessary in the quizzes on an online site? Nothing works for me and I don't have the time to complete the answers with the accents on my PC and then paste each into the quiz boxes. Surely you must have a solution to this problem?
A new set of self-marked weekend writing challenges was sent by email to Premium subscribers.
Once you’ve completed the exercise, there’s a list of grammar topics tested. If you have questions please post them under the most suitable grammar topic (if it’s related to a specific point), or here or on the QandA forum (for general questions). Don’t forget you can add any of the lessons to your notebook(s) and then kwiz against them to strengthen the areas where you discovered you were weak.
Hey there! What kinds of topics would you like to write about? Please give us some suggestions!

Bonjour Erin,
For quizzes, we have a built-in accent picker: https://french.kwiziq.com/faq#accents
For the writing challenges, we don't currently have a solution because those are hosted on an external site. We are working to bring them into Kwiziq, at which point our accent picker will work the same way.
Bonne continuation !
