Passé simpleWhy is there so much emphasis (typically 4 out of 10 questions) on this tense in the CI tests? I would have thought that, at this level, tests to improve the use of idiomatic/colloquial language would be more useful. Such knowledge is frequently tested in the weekend writing challenges which are not marked by the system.

Kwik Kwiz Question 1Hello, why is it that in all the examples in this lesson 'chaque' means 'each' but the options of answers to this question (Chaque mardi, je vais à la bibliothèque) do not have that as an option (I thought the meaning was 'Each Tuesday, I go to the library')? I am confused. regards Catherine

Difference between action going on right now and a more general state of affairs?For instance, if I say in English "I'm studying French," I could mean "Oh, I'm actually reading my French lessons right now" or "I'm taking a course in French, but not right at this exact second." Can you use the 'être en train de" construction for the second sense, or does that not work in French?
