Dernière foisI got this wrong: "C'était la dernière fois que tu m'as dit que tu m'aimais." means: Mauvais: It was last time that you told me you loved me. Correcte: It was the last time you told me you loved me Was it the last of several times and in that last time 'tu m'a dit que tu m'aimais.' Or... Was it the last time (of several times 'tu m'a dit que tu m'aimais') ? The former implies something like 'in our last meeting you told me you loved me.' The latter implies the final time you told me you love me (and you have not since) Me me suis perplexe.

Use of quiEg. Tout ce qu’il fait m’agace. Ithought that qui was not shortened before a vowel and it would be ´Tout ce qui il fait m’agace,

No explanation as to why rient is before verb laugh often" wrong, The answer is "Ils rient souvent", when I click the Explain this button there are only examples of the adverb coming after the verb. Is there some reason why in this example the adverb is before the verb? Thanks a mil, Celine"

"Tu joues de la trompette ---> Tu en joues"Mais je crois que cette exemple n'est pas correcte: "Tu joues de la trompette ---> Tu en joues". Il vaut mieux "Tu joues à la trompette ---> Tu y joues", n'est-ce pas ?

Ne pas + infinitiveWhat is the difference between "ne touchez pas" and "ne pas toucher"? This verb is just an example. I think it was at a fuel station they had a sign that said: Ne pas fumer. Why is ne pas sometime in front of the infinitive and other times around a conjugated form of the verb?

Vous vous réveilliez à 5 heures? Did you use to wake up at 5?Is "Vous vous réveilliez à 5 heures?" more conversational (given that it relies on inflection and punctuation) than "Vous reveilliez vous a 5 heures?" Is the latter still correct, if so, when would you use it rather than the former?
