Incorrect examplesWould be helpful to not include the incorrect forms in the examples in the lower part of the page: "C'est qui que tu as rencontré?" Otherwise, feels like it's reinforcing incorrect options.

due à or dûe à ?

I'm not 100% certain, but I think this should be , "dûe à" , not "due à"

I have a feeling both spellings are accepted ?

Comments anyone ?

Thanks, Paul.

Profiter vs prendre plaisir de

Several times you have used "profiter de" to mean to enjoy. The dictionary I looked at defined profiter a to mean "to be of benefit to" and profiter de as "to take advantage of." Neither of these seems (to me. at least) to imply to enjoy or to take pleasure from. Why do you choose to use it rather than something like prendre plaisir de or some other more enjoyable-sounding term? ( Sorry, but the computer doesn't seem to respond to the holding down of letters for which an accent or other diacritical mark is needed, so my questions are grammatically incorrect......)

So basically French doesn't have " could have, " it has, " have been capable of. "With " pu " being the one translated to " been capable of. " I think this should be in the lesson, to make this easier to understand.
