And, if a "best-efforts translation" to English were possible, would "de" represent "late OF two hours", "late BY two hours", or "late SOME two hours"?

Cheers, Alec

So in an earlier exercise, "I love swimming," you had a possible answer for fear of heights as "peur du vide" but not in this one.  Is there a reason why?

Is "râper" really pronounced to rhyme with "cher"? Because that's the pronunciation given when you click on the speaker button in the "Cooking / Faire la cuisine (v)" vocabulary list at https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/learn/theme/1513111

Might be worth a reminder that -er verbs drop the final s in the singular impératif... Tu donnes.. donne!.. otherwise a bit of a wild goose chase if you make that mistake!

Could this be a mistake in the transcript?    ...qui tienne dans une cabin d'avion 

Bonjour,

I was wondering what do you mean by component adjectives? I see electric cable a wild animal etc but I am unsure why they are component.

Merci

Should it not be 'quittée' as it was the mother who did the leaving ?

The correct response to :

popular French TV host Guy Lux 

was given as:

populaire animateur télé Guy Lux

….was the ‘French’ adjective left off or not required?

Also the correct response to:
1,500 privileged French households

was given as:

1500 foyers français

….no translation for privileged was given

 the equivalent time: zéro heure quarante-cinq
