Small point. 'After studying for your exam..' 'use reviser' , it might be more accurate to use the common English expression, 'after revising for your exam'. Revising implies going over old material, studying usually means learning new material. IMHO
I know that this is not a question related to grammar or vocabulary, but I don't see where else to address the problem since there is no link to report an issue.
While doing this exercise it skipped forward before I could give myself a grade. Because of this, my score was five points lower. Not a big deal, but a little discouraging, since I would have given myself a close to perfect score. Just wondering why this happens sometimes?
I tried to translate 'It's not very nice of her', but I got the same response for 'It's not very nice of him' ( Ce ne pas tres gentil de sa part). Is this a generic response regardless of gender?
which I thought sounded as if it were missing its “v” sound. I’m not the most experienced at “hearing French”, but when playing the word “recevra” via a couple if other translator apps I could hear the “v” in those.
In this exercise, "rr" of Pourriez-vous sounds silent but in the lesson (Conjugate pouvoir in the conditional present in French = could (Le Conditionnel Présent)), for the same Pourriez-vous, I can make out clearly she's enunciating it. Is it just that I can't hear the "rr" in this exercise as clearly as the other one?

In the translation of ” and I'm skint [US: broke] because of all the gifts that I must buy”, they use the expression ”à cause de” for because of. I was wondering if "en raison de" could be substituted for "à cause de". I tried it but it wasn't accepted. Is there a subtle difference that I don't understand?
How to write July 6, 1998 in French?
1) Les enfants reviennent des États-Unis et de France ('des 'because US is plural and 'de' as France is singular I assume)
2) Les enfants reviennent de vacances. (Here is 'de' used because it follows reveinnent or because vacances is singular in French?)
3) Elle se souvient des vacances en Espagne. (What is the justification for the use of 'des' in sentence 3? Why is it not 'de' as in 2) above?)
