il y a une semaine, j'ai vu un film. Is this the typical way of saying this. In English, we would typically reverse the order-I saw a film a week ago

Tony

I am looking for when you would use de plus en plus and when to use de plus en plus de. I can't seem to find an answer, if anyone knows that would be great.

TranslationI'm reading "seul sur Mars" (originally in English). The protagonist is testing that his equipment can clean air properly: "D’accord, ce n’est pas un vrai test, car je ne suis pas à l’intérieur à consommer de l’oxygène et produire du CO2". If understand this lesson properly, a better translation would be "ce n'est pas un test vrai" ?

I wrote "j'adore Sarah..." and it was wrong! When I see "with all my heart", I believe it is correct to use the strongest alternative.

In the first example there is a mistake.

Il aura eu froid cet hiver-là. He will have been (had) cold that winter.

Tout le monde pronunciation

Bonjour, To my beginner's ear, it sounds like in some of the answers the French speaker pronounces each word (tout le monde) distinctly and others the "le" gets glossed over. Am I just not hearing correctly or is there a preference?

Merci!
