Why is it 'Elle aurait eu froid sans son manteau' and not 'aurait été froid'?

Thank you.

Elle veut que son français soit parfait !

English translation here is: She wants her french to be perfect!

This is confusing:  if Le Subjonctif has 2 different subjects - then is she wanting her own french to be perfect  (which would not be Subjonctif)or someone else's (like her daugthter's or her female friend or the professor wants the student's french to be perfect)?

Pas de question, mais J'adore cette histoire!  C'est tres douce!

This is the original sentence. Il pourra bientôt parler russe

But are the following two also correct?

Il pourra parler russe bientôt

Il pourra parler bientôt russe

The test answers are inconsistent; sometimes dix is changed to 10 and minutes to min and heurs to h.   And sometimes not!  IMHO if it is written as a word in the question then it should be written as a word in the answer ie ten = dix  and hours = heurs.

Exactly! On means we, one, people. It does not mean you. So, if one did not check tu as a correct answer, then one should not have been marked wrong. On y va means let us go. It does not necessarily signify let's me and you go, even though on may include you. I think tu should not be included as a correct answer. Ok?

Hi, I don’t understand why one of the options is right or wrong.  Too many choices make this a difficult lesson. 

Hi Aurélie,  In the very first example you use the subjunctive with the same subject Je ne pense pas que je puisse le faire.  I thought that I had read a rule saying there must be two different subjects. ??

Hi, nice passage. I thought that the indicative tense is used after "après que" while the subjection with the expletive "ne" is used after "avant que." Could you please clarify as the past subjunctive is used after "après que" in the text. Merci !

Bonjour Madame Cécile !

Sorry for posting another question.

I believe that it’s good to be frank to my teacher and hence I would inform you that I was unable to understand the answer provided by Monsieur Chris(though it was accurate)  to the question on the following link->

I request you to please provide me with a comprehensive answer to the same which would enhance my learning.

Merci Beaucoup Madame !
