If would have + movement verb uses Être, would this apply to should have and could have versions of the same sentence? Or do they continue to use avoir + dû/pu ?  

It's not clear to me when used on. I'd appreciate some guidance about the use of that pronoun.

The "c'est" audio really really sounds it begins with "F"! 

Also the method you have chosen to overwrite/highlight the mistakes in the users submission makes it really difficult to see the mistakes! I think it would be better move the comparison from behind the tooltip and just display it on the page, and use underlines, insertion of missing letters etc. with a different colour, this will make it easier to read and compare.

In the sentence 'when France won the World Cup ' I used remporté instead of 'gagné' but it remporté wasn't given as an option. Is there a subtle difference in their respective meanings?

In the sentence, ”Tandis que je regarde autour de moi, je me sens émue de voir autant de personnes présentes aujourd'hui”, why is ’pendant que’ not an acceptable alternative ?

Hello, perhaps i missed this/am not understandng something: is there a rule for en versus de usage? eg une robe de satin or une robe en satin? 

Dans la phrase "Mais s'il vient du Québec, d'Alberta ou de Manitoba par exemple...", on utilise du Québec mais d’Alberta, au lieu de de l’Alberta et aussi de Manitoba au lieu de de la Maintoba.   Ça semble un peu contradictoire.   Pouvez-vous me l’expliquer ?   Merci, en avance. 

I didn't finish this exercise the first time round. I've come back to it - a long time later - but unfortunately it doesn't remind me which words/phrases to look up in advance, so had to guess all of them! Please could you do a reminder for when this happens?
