Why do we bother with tu? Most of us are never going to get that close to a French person.

à qui or de qui or dont

Why is "les filles dont je pense sont géniales" - wrong?

parler de?

Sometimes dont is used and in this case à qui/auxquelles

" You took this Kwiz quite recently...soon! " When can I take Kwizs again?How long does someone have to wait before they're arbitrarily allowed to take a Kwiz again? Also, I'm confused about how none of my questions in this site period seem to get answered, or maybe they are answered and I just don't get the answer sent to me or something.

C'est qui que?So I was just listening to Monsieur Grognon in the listening exercise and then I read the transcript. In the second paragraphe there is this phrase: «D’ailleurs, il n’a pas eu de conversation avec qui que ce soit depuis des années. . . .» I recalled from the lesson above that the «c'est qui que» is grammatically incorrect. So, exactly how frequent is this phrase used in everyday French? Merci en avance.

Aller à pied...............is always followed by the destination you're getting to:In the lesson it states that "Aller à pied (literally going by foot) is used when walking is contrasted with another means of transport - walking instead of driving for example - and is always followed by the destination you're getting to:" But an example given is: Je voulais prendre le bus, mais finalement j'y suis allé à pied. In what sense is "allé à pied" followed by the destination in this example?
