Dans le texte complet, est-ce que "grande-mère" épelle avec un "e" dans le mot "grande"?

can you say qui es tu , and does it means the same as tu es qui ?

The guidance says 'any object is placed between the de and the infinitive' so I'm puzzled as to why the example given doesn't end 'avant d'une solution trouver' instead of  the given 'avant de trouver une solution'. Merci!

Why does the "Si" clause use imperfect tense and not past conditional tense when the main part of the sentence uses present conditional tense?

(Yes, the answer is likely "That's just the way it works" - but I am curious.)

Would the meaning change if it began with "Je rêvais toujours..." to indicate a continuing/ongoing state of mind in the past?

Please could we have English translations of the dictation passages? A dictionary does not always help with some of the vocabulary used e.g. 'rustre' 

In one quiz (Kwiz) I was asked to translate "five thirty AM" I wrote "cinq heures trente" assuming the 24 hour clock.  This was apparently wrong because apparently we were talking about a 12 hour clock.

In the very next quiz (Kwiz) I was asked to translate "ten minutes to seven AM" so I wrote "sept heures moins dix du matin" which was also wrong because we were now apparently talking about the 24 hour clock (not apparently for any other reason).

Would it be possible to tell us whether we were talking about 12 or 24 hours on the clock?

My natural presumption is for 24 unless otherwise specified.

What exactly does this phrase mean?  I translate something like "Like a good granny cake".  What is a granny cake?
