What does "kiki" mean?  I understand it in context, but wonder if it has a life of its own.  Thanks.

Thought espérer does not take subjuntive.

On the quiz, I was given Je ________ un jouet!  and put voudrais in the blank. It was marked incorrect and veux given as the correct answer. I though you could use either. Why was voudrais wrong?

Are both of these sentences grammatically correct? I understand why 'ce qui' in the first sentence is correct, but not why 'ce que' would be correct in the second one. I would be grateful for an explanation.

Ce qui à un moment donné est le substrat, n’est pas chaud

Quiz Question: 

Nous avons couru aussi vite que avons pu ! (We ran as fast as we could!) 

Why is there no "nous" subject pronoun following que? 

What is the rule governing whether or not the reflexive construction is used?  It seems clear with personal verbs like brushing ones teeth or cutting one’s hair, but not clear at all in the context of having sandals made.
