The question was: they wanted to see them which I think is the imperfect tense. The order would then be: they them wanted to see.

However your answer is they wanted them to see.

The sentence:

-J'aurais donc besoin de partir d'ici vers 4 h du matin.

Could the future simple be used equally here?:

-J'aurai donc besoin de partir d'ici ver 4 h du matin.

Then we cross the spring-green vine arches,

Puis nous traversons les arches de vigne d'un vert printanier,

Does the green not refer to the arches (Plural)?

I notice the recommended translations of 'who herself became Queen of France' are all 'qui elle-même devint reine de France'.

But I assume you could also write 'qui devint elle-même reine de France' ?

Or does this sound less natural to French ears?

Just to confuse things some more, there are several possible alternative English translations in addition to the one given here:

Je fais le lit après que tu t'es levé.I'm making the bed after you've got [US: gotten] up.
The French can also be translated as:I'll make the bed after you get up.I'll make the bed after you've gotten up.I'll make the bed after you're up.

would 'j'ai achete pour ma mere un weekend' be correct ? ( cant do the accents )

You show the flag mounted with both the blue side and the red side against the flagpole. This is clearly incorrect.

I continually get tripped up with this. I interpret the statement as being the last (previous) time so I enter ‘la fois dernière’ which is marked as incorrect. If the correct answer is ‘la dernière fois’ what is it about the statement that tells me that it’s the last (final) time?

The Kwiz linked to this lesson had the question:  "Ce jour-là, Marie découvrit la vérité"

It seems a bit illogical to class découvrir as a regular -ir verb, because it isn’t one in the present (even if it behaves as such in the passé simple).

Can the verb 'faufiler' be used in this context?
