Shouldn't it be "Elle a dû l'oubliée?" [She must have forgotten it.] 

Here, Oublier is infinitive form of the verb which means - to forget. So, in this example isn't it translated to - She must have forget about it, which doesn't sound right. How can it be translated to '...forgotten it.' which is past tense?

I decided to take a chance today and add an e on the end of "je me suis ennuyée" to see whether it would be accepted as an answer. It wasn't. It's a shame really, given that this is what those of us who are female should be writing. I suppose it would constitute a huge amount of work for Kwiziq to incorporate feminine options thoughout all the quizzes. But perhaps this could be a long-term goal?

I love this Alsatian news broadcast. So funny! The play on words are superb: Prime Minister Cresson and watercress; the S P meaning "ça prûle"; the Haut and Bas-Rhin with reins. So funny. Most of all, l had the acute feeling that l was in France, but maybe in Germany...maybe France? Great way to teach the discombobulation Alsatians have experienced over time  through being attached to this country and then that and then this one again. The presenter's suit and tie etc.,  say it all. 😀 Thank you! A fun end to my French learning today.

Hi,

I think this lesson needs to be updated.

Because I learned in another lesson that: (Venir de/d'/du/des = To come/be from with countries/states/regions and continents (French Prepositions)):

De + feminine countries/states/regions

Du + masculine countries/states/regions

In this lesson, you only mention "de," which confuses me a lot at first to see all the examples are used with only "de". I had to cross-check between two lessons to see if I was understanding correctly.

If I'm wrong, please pardon me.

Have a nice day.

Why are we adding de in front of  mieux in the sentence il n’y a rien de mieux  que d’’ouvrir.....
