Rien de and quelque chose The question used rien d' but the lesson is about quelque chose de. Does the same rule apply to no thing as to some thing?

Is "élèves" interchangeable with "étudiants" ?

I am doing a writing challenge titled "its not my fault" where there was a translation required of "and my students are very creative" My response of "et mes étudiants peuvent ..." had "étudiants" crossed out and replaced with "élèves". I would appreciate knowing the rationale for this please?

Naître in the present and past tensesOne of the test questions for this lesson is: Zoë est née avant Lèo. Zoë is born before Léo. Is this past tense translation correct because the speaker is necessarily speaking about a past event? Could we use the present tense here?
