Hello.i didnt undrstand why he didn't use -de km - for the first sentence below

How far is it from here to your home -il y a combien d'ici a chez toi 

How far is it from Paris to Lyon -il y a combien de km de Paris a Lyon 

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.

Here it is below. For the last phrase, "mais elle l'a eu !", is "mais elle l'a réussi !" an alternate answer? Please explain the use of avoir in this case."

One of he correct answers to "We're going to have to hurry then!" was - "- Nous allons devoir nous dépêcher alors ! " Shouldn't that be nous se dépêcher? Or nous nous dépêcher? Se dépêcher = to hurry, dépêcher = to dispatch?

When do I use "ne...que" and when do I use "ne...plus que"?

Just an English correction - in "Anne never play basketball"  it should be plays or played.

Hi.

How come 'croire ses yeux' but 'faire les ongles'?  I thought that it should be 'croire les yeux' as possessive pronouns should not be used for parts of the body.  

Thanks

Megan

can one also say "où je passais tout mon temps libre"  since dans lesquelles refers to a place.?
