what does cest ça mean?I saw the sentence "qu'est ce que c'est ça". I thought c'est and ça means the same thing "it", so I'm a little confused why do we need to repeat it twice. My teacher said that we can also use "qu'est ce que c'est" and "qu'est ce que ça". How exactly are they different?

LiaisonsIn the pronunciations for this lesson there don”t appear to be any liaisons between the est and the à. For example “c’est à moi” “sont à elles” we can”t hear the letter t. Is it wrong in these cases not to liaise?

Vous_____ arraignéesI used craignez des araignées while also aware of possibility of vous avez peur des araignées, and was marked wrong. Shouldn't either be correct?

Unanswered questions and scoring.I understood that marks are not deducted for unanswered questions. However, I made no errors in a test but had 2 unanswered questions (1 in error) and I was deducted 0.6%. I should be working on B1 and B2 but because I am only 2% short of 100% in A1, I have been determined to achieve that level. Over time, I have done 12 tests with lots of ups and downs and am no nearer reaching 100%. It is much easier to progress at B1 and B2 than it is at A1!! Bien cordialement, Beverley

Je me suis fait brosser les cheveux. Comment ça se fait que la réponse soit dans le troisième personne singulier et ne pas dans la première personne singulier? J'ai écrit < Je me suis fais brosser les cheveux. J'ai dû manquer quelque chose. J'ai lu la leçon et je l'ai relu. Je ne peux pas le comprendre.
