ConfusedIn another exercise, we were supposed to translate 'I got bored' to 'Je me suis ennuyé'. Isn't that also a state of being that should use l'imparfait?

Is it possible to reset one's score?As I move forward, I notice that I am getting good scores on things that I am likely to forget after a few weeks. When I practice them several times in a row, then my score gets higher and higher. If I feel that there are things that I ought to practice for longer, can I reset the score of them?

Les feuilles oranges?In week 81 of the A2 writing challenge, there is a canonical translation "les feuilles rouges, jaunes et oranges". Why does "orange" have the -s suffix? I thought it was a color derived from a real thing and as such, it doesn't change.
