I'm curious about why there's always a question about coudre, moudre and hair in the C1 tests. I understand that they're irregular and need to be learnt, but the questions are always in the present tense, and it seems pretty straightforward for C1. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to make them e.g. A2, and include a wider range of irregular verbs? I feel there are other questions that would be more appropriate and useful for C1.

Not complaining :-), just curious.

How could we deduce that these were plural, and not " de potentielle répercussion professionnelle" ?

Hi,  my kwizbot it is telling my that in this example,”Cette maison est bien. - Oui, elle est ________ l'autre.” 

the correct answe is “mieux.” Why? Doesn’t mieux modify a verb? Here were modifying a noun (maison), so it should be “meilleur” by all logic, so why is the correct answer “mieux”? 

My answer to a question in the quiz wasn't in the dropdown. Please could you explain why the phrase My little boy is in kindergarten uses 'en' instead of mon petit garçon est à l'école maternelle? Thank you.

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.

Hello!

I am wondering why there is a '-t-' in the sentence  "Où va-t-on mettre le sapin ?"    Is this because it is using the reflexive version of the verb mettre?   If so why do we use the relflexive mettre in this instance?   Thank you.  

The first two sentences of the exercise use "on" rather than "nous" for we.  Why is the "nous conjugation of the imperative verb (prenons) used rather than the "on" conjugation (prend)?  That is why "Prenons un selfie"... rather than "Prend un selfie"...?

Je fumais depuis..... is used above.  The Imperfect with Depuis.  In another lesson it said that only the present tense is used with depuis.  Which is correct?

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 ?
