Why is there no "une" before "salle de bains" in this sentence: "Oui, une chambre double avec salle de bains privative."
I have read the lesson and the forum. At this level, is it really necessary to learn several (confusing) ways of asking these questions? Could we learn to use one, the commonest one, and then come back to another lesson later for all the variations. I cannot get past this test (but I can get what I want in a boulangerie!) :)

It seems a few of the hints (la peinture, etc.) were one past the audio extract where they were needed. Also, I find it unnecessary to correct punctuation, as where a comma should be placed is often not apparent from individual phrases unless you have the entire context.
May I suggest that it would be useful to include this link with the list of related grammar and vocab. It explains how Quebec is treated as a country rather than a province, ie. "au Quebec" rather than "dans le Quebec."
En/Dans = in/to + regions/states/counties (French Prepositions)Je m'apelle Ayşe Nur et je viens de Dinde.
This discussion has me confused- it seems contradictory. The question was L'année ______ Napoléon a été sacré empereur. I knew that 'où' would be correct, but from comments in the thread it stated that 'pendant laquelle' would also be correct. So I tried that but it was marked wrong. I'm also confused as to whether 'dans laquelle' would be ok. There are comments in the thread that imply it is ok, but others that it "doesn't sound right". Can someone clarify? Thanks
Is there any difference in meaning/nuance/register between
'Ce magasin est fermé de deux heures à deux heures et demi'
and
'Ce magasin est fermé entre deux heures et deux heures et demi'?
I think I tend to use the latter more often, and I'm now wondering whether it's incorrect, or makes me sound odd.
I have no idea what this phrase is supposed to illustrate, let alone identify what part of it is supposed to be the adjective. Are you trying to say une fille blonde comme le soleil? If so, I think this particular exercise is not clear. It seems like a tossed word salad.
In English, one would generally not say "a blonde as the sun girl" one would say a girl as blonde as the sun. Though to be frank, I would not say that, either.
