When looking around on the internet, it seems like "Retourner" is used here and there, both informal on message boards and formal on shopping sites (for example H&M website: "POUR RETOURNER UN ACHAT EN LIGNE"), for indicating returning an item.

Could you elaborate on this and why you write "Retourner never means to return (something) in the context of a shop for example." ?

il y a tres peu de reponses correctes apres les questions---un mystere?

This was a fun exercise. I really enjoyed learning about la montee des marches and seeing the beautiful photographs of Cannes while researching the vocabulary.

My question refers to the "hotel de luxe". Since the "stars" are plural wouldn't one assume that they leave their "luxury hotels", (plural)? Which would be: "leurs hotels de luxe" ? Or, is the possessive here always expressed in the singular, "leur hotel de luxe"? 

Another question is about the use of the present tense in "j'admire". Would it be incorrect to say, "...que j'admirais depuis toujours"

Merci beaucoup !!

Is there any difference between "à temps" and "à l'heure"?

Any the proper french phrases for "on time" and "in time" ?

Merci boucoup d'avance!
