Salut a tous.

Ma question concerne l'utilisation du pronom "dont"  ici. La phrase ci-dessus peut traduire comme soit "The books I think of are remarkable" soit "the books i'm thinking about are remarkable." étant donné que penser peut prendre la préposition 'de', cette dernière formulation permet l'utilisation de "dont", n'est-ce pas ? S'il vous plaît donnez votre avis. Merci en avance.

Vois ici: De qui/dont/duquel = of/about whom, of/about which - with prepositional verbs with "de" (French Relative Pronouns)

I'm a little confused at the distinction between "beacoup de" and "de nombreux". I used "beacoup de" in an answer and got it wrong, but I believe it was grammatically correct. The answers in the Q&A help a little, but I think it would also help to have this mentioned in the lesson text.

Where is the “Jargon Busters” referred to in the top of the lesson?

Je manque toujours les point d'exclamation.  Il y a un règlement sur le sujet? Comment peut-on savoir pendant la dictée, si un point d'exclamation est nécessaire? On peut entendre un ton dans la voix?

My husband, who is French, is adamant that 'avoir' is not used with apparu. Is it that this is a regional usage (eg Quebec v France or even South of France v Paris where he's from)? Or is it just uncommon? Otherwise, like many a native speaker, he could simply be mistaken!

When I wrote "à vélo" I received a correction that I should have written "en vélo." However, I was under the impression that both "en vélo" or "à vélo" are acceptable (see: À/en + [means of transportation] (French Prepositions)). Was this an error or is there a reason that "à vélo" is not acceptable here?

i wrote 

j'aime 'ramasser' instead of 'collectionner'

Is it right?

This is a phone call, correct?  Why was my word Allo (with accent on the A)marked incorrect in the first line?
