French language Q&A Forum

Can someone explain why I answered this incorrectly?  I answered "nous sommes brossés" and it told me that the correct answer is "nous sommes brossé".  The rule quite clearly states that the past participle should be modified to agree in number and gender though.  We is inherently plural, so shouldn't an "s" be added to the end?  Or am I missing something here?

I have read the lesson and the forum. At this level, is it really necessary to learn several (confusing) ways of asking these questions? Could we learn to use one, the commonest one, and then come back to another lesson later for all the variations. I cannot get past this test (but I can get what I want in a boulangerie!)  :)

 je dois dire que les chats de Cécile sont exceptionnellement beaux.  

Can you please explain why we don't use "de/d' " after ne...aucun/aucune?? What is the reason behind it? Like we use ne...pas assez de.., ne...guère de.., ne...pas de..., beaucoup de, trop de, plus de...

-> Je n'ai pas de pain. // Je n'ai guère de pain. // Je n'ai aucun de pain.

I came across this question in the quizzes. Why are these two sentences correct? One uses the feminine form and the other the masc. They are both referencing the time in the past. How does one determine if it is about the duration or precise moment?

“J’ai passé la journée avec Martin.”

I spent a day with Martin

“J’ai passé un an en Espagne quand j’avais dix-neuf ans.”

I spent a year in Spain when I was 19

Is there a spelling error in the following?

Après s'être rasé la tête, Carl se sentit mieux.

Carl se sentAIT mieux

How would one say ‘This week, I work from Tuesday to Thursday?’ (an exception). Would this be any different from how you would say that in general ‘I work from Tuesdays to Thursdays’? Thanks

Pont de l'Alma with a capital 'P' but pont des Invalides and pont Alexandre III with lower case 'p'. Is that correct?
