"Ce que j'aime le plus au mois de juin, c'est me la couler douce"   - is "la" a substitution for la vie here?

Je préfère celle de Serge quand même :)

Thank you helping in previous question.

How to know the order of the words..?

Est ce que tu parles la francias?

Est ce que parlez vous la francias?

How to decide- personal pronoun to be used has to be before verb or after verb??

Thank you

Direct speech : Ma mère m'a demandé "Qui est-ce avec toi?"

Indirect speech : a. Ma mère m'a demandé qui c'est avec moi.  

                             b. Ma mère m'a demandé qui c’était avec moi.  

I would be grateful if anyone can say a or b, which one is right, or any other is possible for this.  Thanks in advance. 

as title says

The above question linked to this page, though it’s not one of the examples given (can’t find "il y a longtemps" elsewhere on the site)

It’s translated as "This story happened a long time ago" and I’m wondering why it’s not "a very long time ago", or is "très" needed for the distant past?

Bonjour. Je m'appelle Ella et je viens de Nigeria

If I fill up a form with my nationality –

Example one: nationalité: autricien

Example two: nationalité: autricienne

I am a male Austrian, but I fill up with the feminine word 'nationalité' that agrees with the feminine adjective 'autricienne' but I don't know which example is correct.

Please tell me which example is appropriate for a male Austrian nationality. Thank you. 

Hello , to my understanding , there are 2 types of question ,formal and informal . But what type is this that the question "Combien coûte ce livre ?" belongs to ?, Because it's not follow the formulas for formal type ( Est-ce que or inversion ) . And it's not also follow the formula itonation for informal type (question word + statement itonation) like Combien ce livre coûte ?. Why combien is an adverb but can be followed by a verb (coûte).  So it confuses me here  . Can you explain for me please ?
