a la place de 

faire descendre la temperature

Merci

L'Iftar veut dire le dîner, non?  Le soohor est le petit-déjeuner. :)

Bonjour!  Can someone help me with this sentence - in particular the word "en."   I am a little confused about why "en" is used along with "un épisode."  I probably would have written J'en regarderai un ce soir to mean I will watch one tonight.  Merci pour votre aide !

Au cours des années, elle m'a transmis sa passion - why is passé composé used? She clearly says 'over the years' so a repeated action? surely the imparfait would be used here?

What is the rule for capitalisation here? The Cirque in the first line is capitalised but in the last line is marked incorrect when capitalised.

Really don't understand why the waterpolo is faire du versus jouer au. There is a ball involved, n'est pas?

The clue was in the hint = 'which' refers to 'le territoire".

Is it possible to use "grâce à quoi" without this clue ? I didn't pay attention to the clue below the sentence and my 1st thought (and the answer as well) was "grâce à quoi". I wonder if it also makes a sense here ?

This exercise was a good learning experience.

Would "... dans un tel chic restaurant ?" work as well ?

Also, I wrote: "Il se revele que son pere est le gerant de ce restaurant." rather than, "il s'avere que..." 

According to Collins, "ll s'est revele que..." = "It turned out that..."; 

and, "s'averer" = "to prove to be"

"Ce veloute de champignons semble divin." Is using, "semble" in place of "a l'air" equally acceptable?

New Vocabulary:

How did I not know that "un tourte" is for a vegetable pie, (une tarte for a fruit pie)? But, there it is!  And, now I know. Merci !

Couldn't find "pithviers" anywhere so assume it is another word for "un tourtre"

"perdrix" and "perveau"  "Un pithiviers de perdreau" sounds like it is right out of a nursery rhyme!

Je vous remercie pour cet exercice, et maintenant j'ai l'eau a la bouche !

could you use lit matrimonial instead of lit double?
