Bonjour! 

Doesn't femme have two meanings: 'wife' and 'woman'? When should we use them in a sentence?

Thanks and regards

Liza

"When I have some money" is translated into "de l'argent". Why is it not "Des argents" or simply "l'argent"?

Hello.
First question: in the lesson 'Describing senses with 'sentir' -- the different meanings of sentir in French', these examples are provided to illustrate that sentir can refer to an overall feeling: je ne sens rien; est-ce qu'elle sent ça?

Why are these not je ne me sens rien; and est-ce qu'elle se sent ça?

Do we use the reflexive form only if there is a specific adjective or adverb being used to identify the kind of feeling, as opposed to the more general rien or ça? So, whilst you would say je ne sens rien if you felt nothing, you would use se sentir if sensation came back to your toes: oui, je me sens les orteils! ? Is that correct?

Second, can ressentir ever be reflexive?

In the first paragraph and the phrase "il faut entrer dans la tête .." I'm hearing the "t" of "faut" being pronounced.

As there is a "verbe + verb infinitif" situation my understanding is that liaison is forbidden.

However, the "t" sounded does not appear to link across to "entrer".

I would really appreciate some comment !

I thought adverbs can only modify a verb, an adjective, or another adverb.

How come the adverb 'bientôt' is placed before the nound 'les vacances"?

I am struggling to work out what the "en" refers to. I presume it is "of something", but can't work out what (or where the "of" comes from) - the sentence seems to work equally well without it.

In the sentence...

« En revanche, avec une carte de crédit, le paiement de vos achats sera différé : vous en règlerez la totalité à la fin du mois ou en plusieurs versements, selon le contrat que vous aurez mis en place. »

What exactly does the adverbial pronoun « en » refer to?

Hello, is there a way to mark exercises in some way so you could query the marked list, just like we can do with Notebooks for lessons?  I have some dictees and writing exercises to which I want to return, but I don't know how to do that other than writing the names down.  If not, it would be a really nice feature to add.
