Bonjour, I put that "she's dancing" and can't work out why it was marked wrong, the answer is "she takes dance lessons" please could you explain?

kind regards

Gloria

For the sentence “Yes, you’re not wrong” I wrote “Oui, tu ne te trompes pas” thinking that I could use “se tromper” as an alternative to “avoir tort”, but it appears not. Can you explain ?

Hello all,

I've seen several French expressions/phrases where there is no definite or indefinite article, where there would be one in English. 

For example. C'est bon signe meaning that's A good sign, j'ai rencard avec lui meaning I have AN appointment with him.

Is there a general rule that explains this ?  

Thanks,

Jean
