"Un peu que je le suis" meaning?
What does "Un peu que je le suis" mean? I think it's a slang or something...is this commonly used? I couldn't find the english translation online.
Thank you!:)

What does this mean? Ce qui s’est passé le jour du spectacle.
It tells me to answer this question.
I don't understand....does it mean "what happened during the spectacle" or "what happened in the day of the spectacle"
I don't understand :(

Difference between 'ce que' and 'ce qui'?
I can't tell the difference. Something subject and direct object...a slight difference? I really don't understand, even though I did some prior research already. I look at the sentences and the usage of 'ce que' and 'ce qui' look the same to me.

Ça me vs C'est
For example, "ça en vaut de plein" means "it is worth it", right? But...well, I know ça works like cela and is different from "ce". But still, I don't understand when to use c'est or...I find it confusing when suddenly the text uses ça.
So what is ça en? How is it different from 'c'est', and how am I going to use them?
(sorry, the title means ça en vs c'est)
Thank you!

The grass are so nice/the grass is so nice?
Ok, that is obvious 'is'. But what about: "Nice grass! They are so cute?" OR "Nice grass! It is so cute?"
Both seems a bit off. Let's just say I NEED to comment that they are cute/it is cute. Which one is correct?
I heard that grass kind of singular, like fish. But should I grass 'they' or 'it'? Normally I'd use 'is'...but it seems strange to call a lawn of grass 'it'.
Thank you!

But when all I see WERE/WAS Carly's trees?
When all you see WERE Carly's trees...
When all you see WAS Carly's trees, you stop thinking about....
Was or were?
Is 'all you see' singular?

It was my graduation day, but apparently meeting Judy and teaching her algebra WERE so important that they had completely forgot about it.
or should the 'were' be 'was'?
It was our graduation day, but apparently meeting Judy and teaching her algebra WAS so important that they had completely forgot about it.
Should I use was or were?
