I wrote "Puis nous irons chez nous vers 16 heures", is that really wrong. I see that "rentrerons" is better, but is it wrong what i wrote?

Hi. I thought negative opinions were followed by the subjunctive  and translated the above sentence thus: Je ne pensais pas que ce soit si intéressant.  Is that incorrect?

Thanks

My dictionary gives 3 translations for cookie : biscuit, petite gâteau,  and gâteau.   I chose to use petit gâteau, which was marked incorrect.  Since I can't see the cookie and don't really understand if there is a difference, perhaps according to shape or size, could someone elaborate on the nuances?  I have gotten into trouble with this with my friend, who is a native French person, when I used biscuit for cookies that she prepared. Apparently,  there is some disfunction unknown to me.

Hello All.

I was reviewing pronouns using this page:

It mentions using the adverbial pronoun "y" and then gives an example:

I thought that "y" could only be used to reference an inanimate object, not a person.

Are there special cases? What am I missing here?

Thank You in advance.

How do you say “Not only…”?

It's very frustrating, even after listening to it 20 times and with the volume turned up, I hear, "...mais longtemps encore très souvent les chansons à la radio...".

Leave my sister alone! 

Would Laissez-la! Carry a greater sense of gravity than Laisse-la! ?  

Hi, in “Curieuse de nature, je m'y étais aventurée !”, is “curieuse” in its feminine form (as opposed to the masculine “curieux”) because the speaker is female? Am I right in thinking that this is not influenced at all by the female word “nature”?
