The lesson doesn't say if it's okay to replace the pronouns un & autre with subject nouns. E.g  for: 'Neither Julien nor Sophie can come.' can you say 1) 'Ni Julien ni Sophie ne peuvent venir.' ? or do you have to say 2)'Julien et Sophie ne peuvent venir, ni l'un ni l'autre'  or how about 3) 'Ils ne peuvent venir, ni Julien ni Sophie.' ? Or are all three okay?

J'ai vu des oiseaux passer dans le ciel.

J'y en ai vu passer 

J'en ai vu y passer

Which of the above is right?

Why is it quarter to seven and not 7:45 PM?

One of he correct answers to "We're going to have to hurry then!" was - "- Nous allons devoir nous dépêcher alors ! " Shouldn't that be nous se dépêcher? Or nous nous dépêcher? Se dépêcher = to hurry, dépêcher = to dispatch?

I wrote ´nous nous sommes brossés les cheveux’, which was marked as only partially correct. It should have been ´brossé’. I don’t understand why the ´s’ shouldn’t be there. Agreement with ‘nous’. 

Can anyone help, please?

Brief explanation on how to know when w verb is followed by à, de or pour 

Qui peut m'aider s'il vous plaît 🙏🙏

In "it is going to cook the yolk" the verb has an object so it used transitively. Shouldn't the French be "faire cuire" rather than just "cuire"?

In the sentence - J'achète toujours une nouvelle chemise..... the shirt is 'brand new' hence should be - J'achète toujours une chemise neuve?

Bonjour! Un exemple dans cette leçon indique:

>Exemple: Le joli garçon est avec la jolie fille.

Pourquoi c'est "la jolie fille" et pas "la fille jolie"?

[I wrote this in French as practice; but I thought that adjectives follow nouns in French? Is there a lesson going over how to order adjectives?

In addition, I'd love any feedback on the presentation/construction of my question! Writing longer sentences in French is hard.]
