"I have a few questions which I hope you can answer. 1. Are "finir" and "terminer" synonyms? 2. For "I am late." would you say "Je suis en retard." OR " J'ai du retard"? 3. For "at this instant" would you say "a l'instant or "a cet instant"?

Sorry, can't type accents on my keyboard.

How to ask what?I was taught that to ask 'what' when you didn't understand what was just said, you would say, 'comment?' Is this correct or should I say 'quoi?' instead?

ExcitéesI thought this word suggested sexual arousal and would not be appropriate in this situation. Is there an alternative word that would normally be used instead?

Why does mienne have an article before it? Isn't mine a possessive pronoun?

plus que or plus de

I'm confused when to use 'plus que' versus 'plus de'

From the text we see 'est plus que compensé par' and then 'pendant plus de quelques secondes'.

How do you know which to use?
