 Any reason why we use restait allongées à as opposed to s'allongeait à ? 

I wrote : C'est là qu'elle aimait étendre sa couverture sur laquelle elle s'allongeait à rêvasser pendant des heures, but its not in the answers.

Salut

If pas encore cannot be used at the end of a sentence then why can I say: On ne travaille pas encore. As in the example given in the lesson?

Merci en avance

«Depuis, impossible de trouver une position qui puisse soulager la douleur. Je ne peux ni dormir, ni m'allonger, ni me déplacer correctement.»  Can the first sentence really stand on its own? It would make more sense to me if this were all one long sentence with a comma after “douleur”. Am I wrong?

j'ai souvent entendu le mot voisinage comme alternatif à quartier - est-ce c'est vrai?

So, is there a nuance between 'buisson' and 'arbuste' ?  I believe that both translate to bush or shrub.  Shouldn't both be accepted since there is no other description? 

For example : Can « Ainsi le nom » mean « that’s why the name.»?

Hey,

I am. not sure if its ok to post this here. But I noticed that in the lesson on reflexive pronouns.. it says -en nous endoromons, nous (for present participle)

Shouldn't it be -En nous endormant, nous..... What am I missing?

Still not answered: for seasons under what conditions we & do not you use à with definite article. Examples do not clarify
