I'm confused about feminine nouns Do you have an office to take a look

Please could you add the term 'kernel' or 'stone' to your translation of 'noyau' ('pit')? This would be helpful for UK learners.
The sentence " Elle porte aussi des vêtements très originaux" - the word vêtements - sounds like jetements.
When do you use "que" and when do you use "dont"?
In the sentence, "Pour moi, le pire, c'est le fait que le gouvernement ait contourné le processus démocratique en empêchant l'Assemblée Nationale de voter pour ou contre cette loi.", why is the subjunctive used? Is it simply a variation of "C'est important que..."? I had not seen this usage before. Thanks.
In this structure in English, you can use either an object pronoun or a subject pronoun plus a verb. You can't use a subject pronoun without a verb. "She is taller than me." OR "She is taller than I am." BUT NOT "She is taller than I."
