The adverbial pronoun lesson says y can replace a group introduced by the preposition à + [thing(s)/object(s)/location(s)]. In this exercise the preceeding sentence has "J'ai donné tout ce qu'il me restait à mes collègues..." But the following " j'ai substitué " I believe is referring to "tout ce qu'il me restait" not to "mes collègues". Why not " je l'ai substitué" ?

I’ve been studying French church architecture this week and had thought I understood that the saint themself is written with no hyphen, but if their name is used for a road, church, town etc, it becomes hyphenated. For example, Saint Denis for the person and  Saint-Denis for the basilica or commune. So I was surprised in this exercise to see the archangel spelt Saint-Michel.

I also noticed that sauvé and sauvée are both accepted for Orléans - presume either is ok here?

Shouldn’t the verb here be connaître ?

We are told "penser" takes the indicative for positive and takes the subjunctive for the negative.  Why use the subjunctive, "aient", for "pensez vous que ces legendes aient"  Why not "ont"?

Je suis un peu perdu. Pourquoi la texte utilise 'souhaitez' et pas 'souhaiteriez'? J'ai vu que cette texte traduire comme 'What time would you like this call?' 

I really need to focus on THIS topic, not just answer two easy questions and then be forced back into the standard quiz mode where I will forget what I am trying to learn. Why can’t I just focus on this topic?  Help!
