ne explicative mistake & mood mistake by meI am bring this up because I am desperately trying to find a site where I can check my written French. One I recently discovered https://bonpatron.com/ seemed promising at first.
In a quiz question here on the lesson topic above, multiple choice, my answer was marked wrong:
#1 Nous sommes entrés sans que vous ne nous entendez. (wrong, and I now see why)
The correct answer was:
#2 Nous sommes entrés sans que vous nous entendiez.
I can understand why my answer is wrong, based on the lesson.
I checked out all four sentences at Bon Patron including the last two
#3 Nous sommes entrés sans vous nous entendre.
#4 Nous sommes entrés sans vous nous entendiez.
For all four sentences, I was given a grammar score of 100% on Bon Patron.
So I am thinking that Bon Patron is not at all helpful, unless there is some really obscure reason that the three wrong answers here might be acceptable under some obscure circumstance, which I doubt.
Writing in French (to express my own thoughts) is a real challenge for me. At some point I have to go beyond set quizzes (and in no way is this meant as a criticism of Kwiziq) and use what I've learned here, so, for example, I can write correct French to French friend in France.
Anyone have any helpful ideas for me?
Thank you, thank you, thank you, if you do !
I was wondering why "en" is not accepted in my answer using the phrase "etre au courant"? You have "of it" in the English hint.
....sans que Neve en soit au courant
The translation function does not seem to be working for this exercise.

i thought with body parts it was usually 'les' which should be used. In the suggestions during the exercise, there were options to use either. Does it depend on the verbe (trempe or plongé) ?
Using the term non-verbal here is very confusing, as it seems like you are saying it should only be written and not spoken. Perhaps you could change it to read nominal sentences? A nominal sentence is one without an expressed verb. It would avoid the confusion.

Why is On besoin d'amore incorrect? Wouldn't either On or Nous be correct?
