Can you please give an example of when to use the reflexive version?

"j'ai aperçu" versus "je me suis aperçu"

Is it the difference in just passively "seeing" something and actively "noticing" or what else??

Imperative constructionOne of the test answers is "Rappelle-moi de tout cacher," but I don't see that construction here in the lesson. Since that is probably the most common way I use the word "remind", it would be nice to see how it fits in with the others on this page.

"It is not necessary that"

(I'm afraid I can't remember the French question, but this was how I read it in English.)Why is this in the subjunctive? It seems to me to be a fact that the obligation is not needed. Thanks for the explanation.

Bonjour Aurélie

Is it that pronom 'où' is followed by a noun or subject pronoun?

As seen in above examples.

Qu'est-ce que?/Qu'est-ce que c'est que? "What is the difference between "Qu'est-ce que c'est que le Sacré Coeur à Paris" and "Qu'est-ce que la Sorbonne "? The Sorbonne and Sacre Coeur are both buildings. I have looked at the lesson and it doesn't help me to know why it isn't "Qu'est-ce que c'est que la Sorbonne.""
