the last sentence: it is really difficult to understand the beginning.

et elle nous a même donné une chambre avec vue !

it sounds like " et y ...."

When is enfin used instead of finalement?

Why is the plural "vos" used instead of votre?  What part of this sentence is plural?  I thought this was the formal "you" not plural

Why can’t we use on traverserait de la Guadeloupe.... in stead of on passer de la Guadeloupe?

When I buy cat food for my (many) cats, many of the products are translated into French. What I have seen written by manufacturers almost exclusively for dry cat food  is “nourriture sèche pour chats.” That said, what I think you’re trying to teach us is the more colloquial term, as the English might say “crunchies” and we Americans might say “kibble;” hence, “les croquettes.” Am I correct in that neither is wrong?  (FYI, I am checking with two friends of mine who live in France who are cat breeders. I am curious to see what they say.)

This is more of a general grammar question, but I don't see how the sentence "She will get a refund." is in the same family of sentences as all the other examples. Why is it not something like "She's having [her purchase] refunded"?

...the text option “où, comme chaque année, nous avons fêté Noël.” has the audio “où nous avons fêté Noël.”

Bonjour ! One of the A2 level exercises asks which would be the correct beginning for the phrase « [X] a changé entre nous ? » and I'm having a hard time figuring out why the only acceptable answer here is the one with the full « qui ». I thought in front of the vowels we were supposed to make an elision in order to ease the pronunciation. Could you please help? Merci !

for anyone in Sydney, this exhibition will be at the AGNSW from November 2021.
