Hi Adrien Basset!

Thank you for giving this exercise a try! You did really well! You only switched two terms around, namely: D, should be 6, and F should be 3.

So, 'going on a wild-goose chase' means 'To search for something that is unsuccessful and a waste of time because what is being searched for does not exist or is somewhere else', and 'Barking up the wrong tree' means 'To be mistaken about the reason for something happening or the way to achieve something'.

Good luck with practising with idioms! I will publish more exercises with idioms soon :-)

Warmly,

Marieke
