Would you pls explain the differences and nuances of the use of il faut que +subjunctive and devour + the infinitive. When is it better to use one vs the other?
can you say: c'est nageaux, to say it's cloudy, or can only use il y des nuages?

Is the l' before on something Kwizig students have studied up to or including B2? If yes please cite the lesson.
If not yet studied, please provide a grammar explanation. Thank you.
Is ‘Pour mes prochaines vacances’ (writing challenge B1 My Next Holiday) because the writer assumes there will be more than one more holiday? (ie, the next in an expected future series). Would it be ‘Pour mes vacances prochaines’ if the next was thought to be the last?
When ‘Tu aides moi’ becomes ‘aide-moi’, the ‘s’ in the verb ‘aide’ is lost, as in the other example sentences. Does that mean that in affirmative imperative sentences the verb is conjugated in the ‘il/elle/on’ form?
Thank you!
