"La fois dernière" = Noun

"La dernière fois" = Adverb & noun

I got a question wrong, looked at this lesson again and got confused by the whole "followed by a clause" thing (tricky to remember) and I thought that maybe this would be a easier way for me to remember it but I don't want to be lead down the wrong track.

This is the first B2 listening exercise that I have transcribed perfectly.  Thanks for so many interesting dictées which keep me interested and motivated.

I thought it was interesting that it can apparently be correct to blend passé composé and passé simple in the same sentence, according to this supposedly correct Kwiz answer: "Après s'être levé, William alla prendre son douche." Perhaps that is something that should be mentioned/clarified in the pertinent lesson?

For example : Can « Ainsi le nom » mean « that’s why the name.»?

How do we put the accents?
