Chers amis, 

Please clarify my doubt.  Mon école est à côté des appartements    or    Mon école est à côté d'appartements

Which one is right?   does de gets contracted to des or changes to d' as appartements starts with a vowel. 

Thanks in advance. 

Small mis-spelling.

“and I set the table with colourful plates.”

“et j'ai mis la table avec des assiettes multicolres.”

-> “multicolores”

For the adjective for beautiful,masc beau,and fem belle,given the guidance in the study notes the adverb is formed from the masc which ends in a vowel ( beau) ,so I assume it's beaucoup. Any more common adjectives which don't add -ment to the masculine adjective?

Hi, has “ Je vais suivre tes conseils, merci.” been imported from a different exercise incorrectly? It doesn’t seem to belong there at all. Brian

Is it acceptable to say 'nuits hivernales' here?

I continually get tripped up with this. I interpret the statement as being the last (previous) time so I enter ‘la fois dernière’ which is marked as incorrect. If the correct answer is ‘la dernière fois’ what is it about the statement that tells me that it’s the last (final) time?
