I came up with: Si il est mieux, le médicin lui donnera un certificat médical. 

Thanks in advance

To piggyback on the question below, sort of, I have heard & read the use of garder to describe babysitting children, par exemple: "Nous gardons les enfants ici." This obviously doesn't mean that they are physically keeping possession of the kids there, like prisoners (although the kids may think so). Is this one of those instances where context is everything or is it incorrect usage?

Hello. Is there a difference between using des and les in the above expression? Faire les courses was marked wrong in this exercise.

« Elle me rappelle Paula. » - She reminds me of Paula.

What would happen if you wanted to replace Paula with a pronoun? -> She reminds me of her.

Is it? - « Elle me lui rappelle. » or « Elle me la rappelle. »

Can you still not say in any context « Elle me rappelle de lui? » (De being forbidden)

I have gotten this same question wrong several times and I still don't know why.  "Les mêmes scientifiques".  It is an adjective which should agree in number with the plural "scientifiques".  Please help  Thanks, Patti 

Hello, today while watching the news I picked up the sentence:

on a isolé les murs au cas où nous devions rester longtemps.

I wonder why "devrait" is not used in this case.

And can we use e.g. /dans le cas où + sentence/ instead of /au cas où + sentence/ ?

Merci.

I’ll just echo the suggestion to add the context (e.g. as described by Chris) to this lesson. Prior to reading the context I was thinking “we don’t even use this tense in English”. After reading it I realised that of course we do use it, and I could understand where it could be meaningfully used. 

In the first exercise of the day I answered ‘y’ instead of the correct ‘le’. In answering a question in the following exercise I entered ‘le’ instead of the correct ‘y’. Very frustrating! This, after reading both lesson explanations several times over the last few months. This is an observation, not a question. Not your problem, it’s mine. But may I suggest preparing a quick lesson that includes both pronouns. If it already exists please point me to it. Merci !

Good day! My question is for this example: "On ne doit pas parler la bouche pleine." (People mustn't speak with their mouths full.). 

Why is there no "avec"? Is this because it isn't meant to be transliteral?
