There is not recording for any of this exercise.

How can I get better in dictée

I don't know if this was just a glitch, but during the exercise in the acceptable answers for "I made my pumpkin pie", the option audio says "J'ai fait ma tarte à la citrouille" but the option text says "J'ai fait ma tarte à citrouille". The text at the end of the exercise under "Here's the full text for you to read and listen to:" is correct.

How do we know when to use the verb “avoir” or when we have to use the verb “être”? Or is that something we just need to memorize?

B1 ???

You've got to be kidding! (Tu plaisant!)

This is hugely faster than an B1 student could ever contemplate.

Without the translation, I wouldn't have had a ghost of a chance of understanding this.

J'ai besoin de supplementaire information sur l'usage de "en tant que". Remercie de votre assistance.

Would "À bientôt !" be an acceptable answer?

I notice in the sentence 'l'animal perdu s'est mis à dévaster les plantations, manger les fruits, et même boire le bandji' that the à is not repeated before the later infinitives. I thought repeating this preposition was usual - or is that only when it comes before nouns?

Why is 'penser a' here, but not 'penser de' (opinion).  Wouldn't it might be good to know that in addition to 'y' for a clause with 'a'; that 'en' for a clause with 'de' is appropriate (and, I think, clearer than just another 'le')?

[Sorry, I can't seem to do the accents, as needed.]
