"On est gentilS"?You give the example "On est gentils" - should that be "On est gentil" (i.e. the adjective is singular after 'on' even if I'm using "on" to talk about a group of people)? Or am I mistaken? Thank you.

Why is the indirect object pronoun required with this expression?The verb aller does not require à so the direct object pronoun seems more correct. Also the direct object pronoun seems even more correct in the negative, when the clothing does not suit someone. Thanks.

Using grand-choose instead of beaucoupFirst, thanks for the great lessons. This is the most flexible and best online solution I've found, and I've been really impressed by this q n a forum. That said, when do you use grand-chose vs beaucoup?

Leur vs LeursJ'écrirai à mes cousines. Je leur écrirai bientôt.I

As "cousines" is plural, is there a reason for saying leur instead of leurs?

Perhaps I have misunderstood the rule.
