The dialogue 'A Lover's Phone Call', has the following - "Non, c'est toi ! Allez, on compte jusqu'à trois !" Why is the third person 'Allez' used? The person is addressed as toi.  And if it was meant to be 'let's count to three, wouldn't it be Allons?

I translated 'don't you think that markets are more expensive ' as 'Ne penses-tu pas que les marchés soient plus chers'. It is an inverted verb in the negative form. I'm confused.

J'ai oublie tout ce que j'etais fait apres que le virus etait suos controle.

Bonjour, Ma saison préférée est l'hiver. Je viens d'Inde où il fait toujours chaud. L'hiver canadien est très beau avec son fond blanc. Je ne dérange pas le froid et je l'appricie même. Et la neige , c'est le meilleur moment. Je viens d'apprendre à patiner et j'ai passé mon hiver dernier dans la patinoire. 

Merci beaucoup pour cet exercise. Bonne journée et bonne soirée ( où que vous soyez!).

Re "(Mes frères jouent ________ cornemuse) My brothers play the bagpipe", there is no singular word "bagpipe" in English; it should say "bagpipes".

I think the explanation for avoir envie de vomir needs to be amended to say that this can be expressed using avoir besoin de as well as using devoir. Having studied the lesson, I assumed you could only use avoir envie de. 

Two Kwiz questions linked to this lesson give the above construction for "go there" - can y aller be used instead? Is there a distinction?

She wants you to go there = Elle veut que tu ailles là-bas 

Do you want me to go there? = Veux-tu que j’aille là-bas ?

When do you use the definite article with names that don't normally have one?

How do we know that he was not carrying in dirty shoes that were expected to be clean. 

How would one say, "He came in, the shoes were dirty.", not meaning HIS shoes? 

There IS ambiguity as to whose shoes they belong to.

I would like to ask why in the first sentence 'à Pâques' is not correct and it is translated 'pour Pâques' instead. According to this lesson (Which prepositions to use with celebration days - like Christmas - in French) the preposition should be 'à'. Are there other situations?

Also, why is there the article in '... pour déjeuner le dimanche' if it refers to a specific Sunday? (Using "le" with days of the week + the weekend (French Definite Articles))

Thank you
