(Histoire de ma vie) I have the desire to write a novel or I have no more the desire to write a novel. What means : se passer qchose? 

how will we conjugate  " Elle a des stylo "

Could you use "je suis pressé(e) de..." for "I can't wait to...". i.e. Je suis pressé(e) de découvrir le manoir hanté...

I thought I had seen that construction suggested as a possibility somewhere in the past, but I'm never quite sure if it rings correctly to a native speaker, or if that sounds more like "I'm in a hurry to..." (i.e. more stressed than excited).

I understand about the "l'orientation" part, but shouldn't this read "Je n'ai jamais eu DE sens . . .." ?   In negative sentences, we are told to use "de" after a negative express in order to express no/any, which seems to be exactly what this sentence is doing.  Why translate "I've never had A good sense of direction" with a definite article?

Un/une become de/d' in negative sentences in French (French Indefinite Articles)

Je sais que cette phrase est correct mais je ne sais pas pourquoi.  Selon mon connaisance de ce sujet AUQUEL est à + lequel. 

donc le verbe ici c'est une locution FAIRE PEUR. est-ce que la structure de ce verbe est faire peur à qqn? si non pourquoi il a utilisé auquel et pas lequel?

Quel est le genre grammatical de 'Paris', et pourquoi pas 'à la campagne' au lieu de 'dehors de la capitale' ?

I was doing the exercise (https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/my-languages/french/exercises/judge/1833/14548249?response=4150265&page=7) to answer a question and now have one of my own:

There's the phrase: visiter les ruines du vieux château.

How come the rule that the definite article is omitted if there's an adjective intervening between de and the noun is not applicable here? I would have thought this should be ...de vieux château.

I understand that aucun is more emphatic than pas de, but does "Je n'avait pas d'idée ..." not work for this sentence as well?  Thank you.

I just realized that qui is used for living things,  trick question eh
