... car le bureau de poste local n'offrait plus ce service. 

In this section of the sentence the 'S' at the end of 'pluS' is pronounced. This seems at odds with the lesson 'Ne ... plus = no more/no longer' which states: -  

Note that when plus has a negative meaning (no more), you don't pronounce the final 's', except when you do the liaison with a vowel following ('z' sound).

... in the exercise plus is followed by 'ce' and 'ce' does not start with a vowel and as such should not be pronounced? 

Maintenant or désormais? Also I keep making a mistake with prepositions please let me know I put “couvert de la sueur”.

How come there is elision for "Je suis australien" but no elision for "Je suis australienne"?

How do we get better at French? 

I want, A2 study materials

Where to use vieux and vielle and naveau and nouvelle 

On the 4th or 5th question, in the english phrase they wish us to translate, at the end of the phrase, there is a point ("."). But when i put the point in my french phrase, it was marked as wrong, causing me to lose points, I assume. 

Please fix this error or explain it to me!

Thanks,

Karina

Why didn't we use '..nous allions au sud de la France'? When do we use 'au sud' and when do we use 'dans le sud'? Or 'au nord'/ 'dans le nord'?
