Does not the 2024 Tour de France end in Nice (because of the Olympics in Paris)?
I don't understand this
French: "Vous parlez d'autres langues"
English "Are you speaking about other languages?"
if "de" comes from "parlez", the lesson says it needs to be contracted to "des"
but here, it's just "d'"
I wrote "Oui, on a papoté pendant une heure." instead of "Oui, on a discuté/bavardé pendant une heure." It marked it as incorrect. I think bavardé is closer than discuté for 'chatted', but I feel like 'papoté' suits well for the context. Am I wrong?

I’ve been studying French church architecture this week and had thought I understood that the saint themself is written with no hyphen, but if their name is used for a road, church, town etc, it becomes hyphenated. For example, Saint Denis for the person and Saint-Denis for the basilica or commune. So I was surprised in this exercise to see the archangel spelt Saint-Michel.
I also noticed that sauvé and sauvée are both accepted for Orléans - presume either is ok here?
Why not "etait ajoutee"
Vous avez utilisé cinq points d'exclamation dans cette dictée!
Why does the text switch from imparfait to passé composé here:
Nous étions vraiment désolés. Nous nous sommes excusés
Question on a test: “What are all the possible ways to say 3 o’clock” Marked incorrect for NOT choosing the following highlighted answer. Why do I need “de l’après-midi” if I am using “quinze”? Isn’t it obvious that I am speaking of the afternoon?
