I used revenir for "coming home". Is this wrong? And when should we use each verb?

Thanks.

PS it's almost impossible to do À - it changes to à

In the listening exercise: Choisir ses études (A2), shouldnt the adjective fascinant be feminine  given its referent 'La Psychologie'?

The text in question.

Je vais étudier la Psychologie parce que je trouve ça fascinant.

Please advise. THanks

this dictée made me smile.  It's heartening to know that certain domestic issues are universal! :) 

  Sarah ne faisait pas confiance à Thomas.

Sarah didn't use to trust Thomas.       In French can you really express the idea of “used to” (do something) just by using the past imperfect tense (as here)? Or does it need “avoir l’habitude de …” ? Is there a difference in meaning in French? Merci

It appears that you have altered the sensitivity of the-- Next lesson box, in all exercices

A click used to operate from anywhere in the box - now only in the bottom area..

Would it be possible to make the whole box sensitive to a mouse click.

Thank you for help'

As I understand it, dans can also be used when the sentence implies a future action but not duration? 

Why is the phrase "notre prof de science nous demandait de préparer ..." in imparfait not passé composé? Since the requests occurred at specific points in time I thought it would be passé composé. Is it because the requests were repeated each year?

Hi,

Is there a lesson that explains the difference between amener and emmener as I am always mixing them up !

Thanks

I know there are lots of exceptions in French! Is there one hiding behind the breaking of the symmetry of taking off two letters and adding one when forming participles (-er > -é, -ir > -i, but -dre > -du, rather than the simpler -re > -u) ?

HI,

I am understanding the usage of the reflexive verbs as well as reciprocal but I had saw something about passive pronominals would that be something for A2 I had seen it somewhere and now I can't seem to find it.

Thanks
