In an earlier exercise you have 'Je chapeau bleu at one jute bleu'. why was 'jute blue' not feminised or is it assumed that woman do not wear hats?

Regular -ir conjugationSince verbs ending in -mir are conjugated differently than those ending in -ir, it would be useful to be able to see easily how regular -ir verbs are conjugated to compare them. Maybe a link to that lesson?

Why peut-etre que?I am doing an exercise called "My post-university plans." I am asked to translate from English to French "Maybe I'll be able to spend some time ...." I wrote "Peut-etre je pourrai passer les temps..." The answer was "Peut-etre que je pourrai..." My question is why the "que" after peut-etre? Thank you.

Going to my home

"and just as in English, you would never say "I'm going to my home""

I think saying "never" here is incorrect. I can think of situations when I might say this.

Vas-yVous avez dit que pour les verbes 'er', ils perdent la 's', mais j'entends tout le temps 'vas-y'. C'est une erreur, ou c'est quelque chose de normal? Merci

"ma tête me fait mal" why not "la tête" since "me fait" already indicates it's your own head ?
