Does separating pas & non plus convey something different from putting them together?

For the "Je ne regarde pas non plus le télé" vs. "Je ne regarde pas le télé non plus", does one mean "I [like you] also don't watch tv" and the other mean "I don't watch tv either [in addition to another activity]"?

Est-ce qu'on peut lire les leçons de ''français'', ''en français''?

Je constate que tout les leçons de Français sont en anglais. J'ai entendu que c'est mieux d'apprendre un langue dans le même langue.

Cest-tu possible d'avoir les leçons écrit en français? Selon moi ça serait utile pour tout le monde.

Merci :)

Maybe I noticed a small typo

Bonjour Madame Aurélie,

While doing a test named “Conte de fées” I landed up at a mysterious sentence -

Le père était àgé et sortirait rarement de son lit, alors sa fille devait s’occuper du jardin et des animaux.

Here I would like to ask you why a dû was marked incorrect although the English translation specifies ‘so his daughter had to take care of the garden .....’ . I read your lesson which states that one uses Passé Composé for an obligation that was very well met. And here too is the same case.

The link to the test -

https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/my-languages/french/tests/take/2581800

Please help me to figure out the correct option.

Merci d’avance !

Bonne journée!

How to describe one-off dancing / swimming?

The lesson says:

When using "faire de la danse" or "faire de la natation" (FOR EXAMPLE) rather than simply "danser" or "nager", you refer more to an organised, repeated activity - I take dance lessons / I go swimming [as a regular activity, e.g. attending class or lessons] - than just a 'one-off' activity you're in the middle of doing such as I'm dancing / I'm swimming.

How would one then say: "I am dancing / I dance" without implying one is taking dance lessons? Same for swimming.

Thanks.

why "le" as object referring to a feminine noun?In one of your quizzes than answer to a question is "et elle invite des amis pour le goûter." This is referring to tasting an apple tart (une tarte aux fruits) which is feminine. why use le instead of la?"

Gerard’s House writing A-1

In the first sentence Emma: Today I am visiting Gérard’s House your answer is Aujourd’hui je visite la maison de Gérard.

I thought visite is for museums, not peoplés house. For people we should use rendre visite. Please explain
