Is there a rule about using hyphens with 'et un' when added to thirty, etc.?

Hi, in the example "François, dont j'ai rencontré la femme le mois dernier", can one say "François, dont la femme j'ai rencontré le mois dernier"?

We don’t know if ‘theirs’ applies to a single car they own or if they both own a car (assuming just two people), because we don’t know the context. So, I’d have thought that ‘les leurs’ is as legitimate an answer as ‘la leur’.

Bonjour. My husband and I will be in France in a few weeks and are renting a car. We’ll be in the Dordogne region on rural roads and even after reading about it I still don’t understand about stopping for cars entering from the right. It seems impractical to stop at every intersection on a road when a small road on the right has a car. Any hints on how this works ? Thank you. I’m using Lawless to work seriously on my French but am scared about driving as I’m only around a B1 level.

The English sentence says "She can sing", not "She knows how to sing". I know how to sing but I can't sing because my voice is terrible. Can all French people (or Quebecoise) who know how to sing, actually sing???

Can 'parcourir' be used interchangeably with 'couvrir' in the context of this exercise? 

I used avoir + monte because in the notes it says this means - to go up, but the answer uses etre.  Please can someone help me with this?  Many thanks, as always!

Isn´t Réveillon for New Year's Eve? Shouldn't it be Nöel?
