Im just a bit confused since before i could always say Le ....... But now, they are correcting me, just because of the ''le''.

Quelle est la différence d'utilisation entre les magasins, les commerces et les boutiques ? Est-ce une question de taille, de spécialisation, etc. ?

As a paying customer of Kwiziq, I wish to be able to have a physical print out of the lessons I want to review. It's easier for me to read than from the computer screen.....
In the phrase, "et je passerai le reste de ma vie à faire tout mon possible", instead of 'ma vie', I'm pretty sure he's saying 'la vie'.
