Thanks for all these lessons!

Could you say "jusqu'à ce que j'aie trouvé la personne" instead of "jusqu'à ce que je trouve la personne"?

Should we are going to Portugal be nous allons au Portugal or nous allons dans le Portugal.

While the lesson is clear that the le passé composé is used here to use depuis for negation, I'm not sure how to ask the question that leads to this response: 

For example: When was the last time you your mother saw you? 

- Is it: Quelle était la dèrniere fois/Depuis quand ta mere t'a vu/te vois?

In either the case the answer would be in passé composé: for instance: Elle ne m'a pas vu depuis longtemps

Thanks!

it's  funny how all french courses keep saying "oh but you forgot that in french there are male and female nouns"

NO I HAVEN'T. i just cannot possibly remember who is le and who is la, after one month of learning language. and yet, not a single app/website that i've used so far seems to understand that.

"use de when something is uncountable". bro, i'm here because i had no idea if beer is du or de la, and i wouldn't be here if, for example, the quiz used water instead of beer.

they all seem so disconnected from the audience they are trying to teach...

Je pense que les hints (? en francais) sont pour la dernière éxércise?

Merci bcp 

About 'face the facts', is it also correct to translate it as ' faire face aux réalités'. 

I think 'faire face à ' is a very common expression.

In the answers to "and equality also means freedom", it seems as if "l'égalité" and "la liberté" can be used in place of "égalité" and "liberté".

Does this mean that if you use "l'égailté" that you should also use "la liberté", or if you use "égalité" you should use "liberté"? Or is there some subtlety with the verb chosen that would require the use of an article?
