Could "du coin" substitute for "local" in the context of a local newspaper? 

In the second sentence, the conversation has "lui" although it is hard to distinguish "lui" from "leur" with the speaker's intonation.  For the remainder of the conversation, the conversation has "leur" when referring to the recipient(s) of the gift.  While I can get the difference after listening for multiple times, I still find it strange that the two are not consistent.  

Hi, normally, there is a hint when a proper name is used, but not in this case for Cyril. Is that intentional? Are we supposed to be good enough by now to pick up proper names?  :)

I wrote : nous rentrions de lécole. could that be an option?

"Il est bon", refers to the actor or the film? If it is the film, shouldn't it be "c'et bon"?

Qu'est-ce-que cette citation veut dire ? 

"he must be worried sick at the idea that I'm worried/anxious about his silence" ?

Quoi ? S'il a mal, avec intoxication d'alimentation, cloué au lit, il a plus des problèmes que si elle est inquiété, non ?

Si ça n'est pas correct, je n'en aucune idée. 

Could you not answer Oui j'y crois ??

For the question "Je suis resté cinq jours à Mykonos, mais ________ à Paris", I was marked incorrect for answering "je ne suis que resté trois jours". The accepted answer was "je ne suis resté que trois jours". How does placing "que" before or after "resté" change the emphasis or meaning of this statement? "But I stayed only three days in Paris" vs "But I only stayed three days in Paris". I cannot see the distinction that makes one form wrong and the other right. 

"Ginger" can be used as an insult in the UK (sadly), and some would deem it offensive.
