Why is this correct? (Qu'est-ce que c'est vs. quel est...)I asked about this previously and I am still confused.
I did a quiz before and it asked how you would ask "what is this" or something to that effect. And it didn't accept "quelle est..." as the correct answer.
The answer I had received is that quelle needs to be followed by a noun. However, previously, my French teachers would say questions like "Quelle est la date?", so I was very confused. Is that phrase incorrect?
Furthermore, I was doing another quiz and got this question:
Quel est le nom ___ restaurant ?
And I was confused why you could ask "what is the name of the restaurant" and use "quel est" and not "qu'est-ce que c'est" or "c'est quoi".
Basically, I'm not understanding if/when you can use "quel est.." or "quelle est..".
Thank you!
Hello, I can’t find any lessons about “ce dont” on kwiziq though I’ve seen it being used by french people many times. So I look it up on lawless french and find a comparison between “ce dont” and “dont” (https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/indefinite-relative-pronouns-ce-dont-quoi/) and I still can’t tell the difference between the two. Please help. Thank you so much!
This might dive into various grammatical topics, but I can't seem to figure out what rules this sentence should follow:
Est-ce que c'est possible de réserver une table?
Est-il possible de réserver une table?
Which one is in this case grammatically correct and why? Could you both use them in different instances?

I thought to "manage to" or "be able to" was "arriver à," "parvenir à" or "réussir à."
Nevertheless, we've this sentence "Mais j'ai réussi du premier coup," featuring "réussir de" + le coup. Is that correct?
Memories are so precious and pure. Childhood memories are special for everyone. I have a lot of fond memories from my childhood and I love looking back on the good times. Even though, having grown up as a child, I had a fairly uneventful life. My parents were never really home. So I could basically do whatever I wanted to. Someone came to prepare the food. I usually came back at 4:30 p.m. and had lunch afterwards. I loved watching cartoons so much that I would stay up late at night just to watch cartoons. I always tried to study hard for my parents. My mom came back on weekends and my dad came once a month. I vividly remember going to dinner with my parents every time my dad came home. It was a time of celebration for all of us when a family got together and we were just happy in our own bubble. I will always cherish my childhood memories, forever.
I have seen brown (in English) as both marron and brun in French, how are they different or is either correct?
