Bonjour! I am a bit confused about the example without à. In what context would you skip it? Merci! 

In the example:   "I always liked you."  You give the answer:  Vous m'avez toujours plu.

I think it should be:  Je vous avez toujours plu.

I know that the verb "manquer" uses a strange inversion of the subject and object, but I don't think that applies to "plaire". Does it??

1) The audio says "Il fera très beau sur la majeure partie du pays" - but the text says "Il fera très beau sur la plupart du pays"

2) The policy for these dictées has always been (apart from at the very low levels) to encourage us to write numbers as figures rather than to spell them out. However, this exercise marks you wrong if you write "entre 25 et 30 degrés" rather than "entre vingt-cinq et trente degrés".

Apologies if I'm asking this question in the wrong place!

I'm adding into what Avery said about how this grammar point could use some clarification, as I find this one particularly confusing as well. Thank you Avery!

It's unclear that some activities can be referred to by both faire and jouer. I only figured this out because I got dinged on a test for not knowing that basketball is one of these. I do see that the examples show this, but an explicit explanation would be nice. Or a list of common activities and whether they are faire or jouer would be helpful. 

The section on faire de la danse vs danser could be clarified a bit more too. There are gray sentences for the example English phrases, but they aren't translated into French. I can't see how the sentences in French would be built without making my own guesses.

Thanks guys!

Is "on" used throughout this text instead of "nous" since this is considered casual writing? 

Why are the plural "tous" and plural agreement "habillés" used with "on"? I thought it was considered a singular pronoun since it conjugates with il and elle.
