This discussion has me confused- it seems contradictory. The question was L'année ______ Napoléon a été sacré empereur. I knew that 'où' would be correct, but from comments in the thread it stated that 'pendant laquelle' would also be correct. So I tried that but it was marked wrong. I'm also confused as to whether 'dans laquelle' would be ok. There are comments in the thread that imply it is ok, but others that it "doesn't sound right". Can someone clarify? Thanks
