In English, we say, “l feel hot, not I’m hot”. When we say, I’m hot, it means I’m sexy. Right?

de L'Inde ou d'Inde?

I have seen some tutorials using 'Je viens de L'Inde' while some tutorials use 'Je viens d'Inde' to say 'I am from India'.

I feel both are grammatically correct (In my limited knowledge).

Which phrase is should I use?

Durant vs. Pendant?

I don't understand what the difference between durant and pendant are. The lesson puts them together and doesn't say if there is a difference.

écouter à vs. écouter de?

Why is the sentence fragment "J'écoute du Beethoven" and not "J'écoute à Beethoven"? When would someone use 'écouter à' vs 'écouter de'?

un and autre agree in gender (un/une/autre)

1) It seems 'autre' only agrees in number, as seen in the examples. If there is a situation where there's agreement in gender could you please provide an example?

2) In the example of Maxime being hyperactive, should it be: Elle est hyperactive (F)?

lundi vs. le lundi

Aurélie le rappellera ________.

For this fill-in question I answered d'ici le lundi (wrong) instead of d'ici lundi. This is surely something I "learned" a long time ago (lundi vs. le lundi) but have forgotten because I haven't used it much. Could you please point me to a lesson where I can refresh my memory?

Thanks very much.

What is the difference between manquer and rater? If I wanted to use the examples above about a train or a concert, what would the difference be for the two verbs? Can I use both or is one wrong? If not, what is the change in meaning?

Is there a rule for using liaison after "mais."I hear the different usages of liaison with "mais" before words beginning with a vowel. In your video "La Bretagne se révèle en Côtes d'Armor" the speaker sometimes uses it and sometimes does not before the same sound, making her difficult to understand. Is it simply facultative or is there more to it. Thanks.
