A quiz question about "il était une fois" is wrong; the answer has no "qui".

For one of the quiz questions on this unit, the required answer is "Il était une fois, un roi vivait dans son château."


If I understand the example in the lesson and these comments correctly, the answer should actually be "Il était une fois, un roi qui vivait dans son château."

Hi Aaron,

If it's a quiz error, please use the "Report it " button in your Correction Board as it will link directly to the said quiz and is easier to fix.

Many thanks

Hi Cécile,

I'll do that, but the last time I used a "Report issue" button to report an incorrect quiz question, the person who responded said "I'm not a French expert; please post a question on the discussion board for the lesson." A bit of a catch-22. (However, I can't remember if I reported it from the quiz or the "Explain this" pop-up page or somewhere else.)

Hi Aaron, 

If you come up against something similar in the future, please try the 'Report it' button in your correction board again as this is the procedure I have been given to follow.

Language questions come back to me anyway and there might have been a glitch in the system at that point...

Thanks
