"un séchoir à cheveux" (appears in your lesson and in one of the questions):
Although it's not incorrect, its never said that way, but "un sèche-cheveux"

I thought the equivalent of the passé composé was also in 3 words in English. You used "We played soccer" above, but you could also say "We have played soccer" like in French?
pffff sorry. I deserve the Alizée bear treatment now This is what happens when you write while you are half awake.

will change the hair dryer

well I wanted to emphasize that Passé Composé must be formed with subject + 2 verbs, unlike in English where it is more flexible. I guess you could say We have played too. That's why I said that. I think I will edit my explanation.
