Revision KwizzesI really like the format of the site and how you see progress through tests. However I am concerned that stuff that I have learnt earlier in a section is not going to stay with me for ever. Does the site and the lessons presented cater in any way for revising and reinforcing previously learnt sections? Thanks, Richard.

Je ne sens plus mes jambesHello, in the writing test for A2 Week 35 'Je ne sens plus mes jambes' is given as the answer for a translation of 'I can't feel my legs anymore.' Since in this sentence 'jambes' are the object, this left me a bit confused. ~Could you help please?
