I am using an iPad and for some reason I can hardly ever get the arrow for the voice recording to play twice. I would really like the option of being able to listen to the recording once, then write what I think I hear, then play the recording one more time to check what I’ve written. Is this a problem only with iPads or are other people having the same challenge? Thanks. 

In the sentence, "De plus, l'aspect défi de cette initiative permet de déstigmatiser la non-consommation d'alcool...", I don't understand 'l'aspect défi'.  In my dictionary, aspect and défi are both nouns, aspect and challenge respectively.  Can you first translate and then explain?  Thanks.

Why une brosse a dents and not aux because dents is plural?

How would one say ‘This week, I work from Tuesday to Thursday?’ (an exception). Would this be any different from how you would say that in general ‘I work from Tuesdays to Thursdays’? Thanks

We were asked to translate "around the globe."  The answer was given as "du monde entier."  Why not "autour du globe"?

I know it is only correct to say Je vain manger à huit heures. However, in response to À quelle heure ?,  I've seen the phrase At nine o'clock written as both À neuf heures and A neuf heures. Are both A and À correct to use in this instance?

Is there a difference?

Am I able to say "Avez-vous décidé?'' instead of "Avez-vous fait votre choix ?" in this  exercise?

Why wouldn't this be "une variété...a fait"? It's "variety" that is the subject of the sentence, and not the prepositional clause "of programs," is it not?
