No mention of alternative words ?

Since other French speaking countries use words like septante,octante and nonante it would be nice to mention them in the article. I get that you don't want to confuse beginners but acknowledging their existence for those that might have an interest into learning those alternative words might have been neat.

Not really a question and more like a suggestion.

When does Kwiziq Move You To A1?

I've been following the Kwiziq recommended study plan and have mastered the level A0 topics. I've managed to get my score to 100% for the entire A0 level. However, Kwiziq still recommends level A0 lessons no matter how many tests I take. Will Kwiziq eventually start putting level A1 lessons into my study plan? Or do I have to do something to toggle it?

Thank you.

writing exercise, "The town of Gruyères", grammatical point

In the exercise "The Town of Gruyères", the translation of "Before we even entered the picturesque village," is given as "Avant même que nous entrions dans le bourg/village pittoresque,". I think it should be 'nous sommes entrés dans ...'. What am I getting wrong there? Also, I'm aking my self, does an optional 'ne explétif' go before 'entrions'?

Sound check, please

Second sentence, 'dormi' sounds like 'dorni' - that is, no 'm' sound. Third sentence, 'et il a' sounds like 'et la' - that is, no 'il' sound.

Agreement of adjective

In “Salut Mathilde, ça te dirait de passer au magasin de fripes au kilo ? Salut Paul ! Oui carrément, ils ont plein de nouveautés en plus, il faut qu'on y aille avant qu'ils soient dévalisés.”

Should it be “dévalisées” because “they” are the “nouveautés” which are female & plural?
