A peu explication pour qoui ne remplace pas on  au nous sommes 

Bonjour, I ran into a sentence on a youtube video. "Elle adore travailler avec les enfants et les aide à apprendre de nouvelle chose. My question is why "DE" used with the verb apprendre in this sentence. "Apprendre de" means learn something from someone/something but this definition doesn't correspond the meaning of apprendre in this sentence. What is the function of this "DE" in this sentence.

Merci..   

I learned that "ma" changes to "mon" if the female noun starts with a vowel, for pronunciation.

But does this "mon" changes back to "ma" if there ist another adjective in between?

(maybe not very relevant to this topic, but by seeing the examples, it reminds me of this) 

I have a suggestion to change the word 'washerwoman' to 'laundress'. I think it makes better sense.

In this Kwiz, you state that I did not answer two questions, no 7 and no 8.

But I have a screenshot of my answers, showing that I DID answer them and had both correct.

This seems a bit unfair. I really got 8/10.

The other question I have is about question 1 (time duration). I got "Phileas Fogg avait un jour d'avance." right, using "avoir".

You state that your answer of "Phileas Fogg était en avance d'un jour" (using "être" is correct, but in the lesson, it says that the correct cuse of "étre" is: Phileas Fogg était un jour en avance. 

So, I think that your "étre" construction is wrong.

Thanks. Please comment by email.

Can you explain why it is ‘avec ça tout devrait bien aller’ rather than ‘Avec ça tout devrait aller bien’ The usual response to the question ‘ça va’ is ça va bien’ and not ‘ça bien va”

Hi, I saw a dialogue in tv series Better Call Saul. It was "I am not telling you anything until we talk about my dad " and French translation is "Je ne te dirai rien tant qu'on n'aura pas parlé de mon père.. What I want to ask is why "parlé" is used instead of "parler", why passé composé form is used in this sentence after future tense of avoir.

Thank you.

You should not be grading us on punctuations. This is ridiculous.

Cette exercise et l’exercice de B2 cette semaine (‘Se réconcilier avec un ami’) ce sont très interessantes avec la vocabulaire et des phrases très utiles ! Leurs sujets rendent le travail difficile de les faire amusant. Bon travail ! Merci !
