Faillir de (rater, for example) is being used. I have no problem with this usage, but wonder why presque is not used at all -- e.g., j'ai presque rate as an alternative to j'ai failli rate. Just curious. Thanks!

les yeux bleus, les yeux noisette?

The lesson says to use "il a les yeux bleus" but the test says "Il avait les yeux noisettes", as wrong. I am not sure what is the exception even though I am learning a language of exceptions

Prefessur/Professure

the question about the Professor: I put Leon as it's Prefessur and not Professure (F)? But it was wrong. Is that because of neologism? so, Professure is not used?
