Just to let you know, for “OK, but it's on me!” the first answer “Ok, mais c'est moi qui t'invite !” doesn’t have an audio file.
Je pense que cette conversation aurait été plus interessante et utile si une des personnes avait présenté la position du gouvernement d’en manière cool et rationale. On s’attend à cela au niveau C1. Pour moi au Canada, je n’ai pas fait mon retraite jusqu’au âge 66, et j’ai trouvé quitter mon travail plutôt dur parce que mon salaire à temps plein c’est bien, et le travail est un forme de vie sociale. En général, la vie ne devient pas moins cher. Est-ce qu’il possible que les autres pays développés aient un âge de la retraite plus élevé que France pour une raison ?
Can pendre be used instead of accrocher?
“trois-cent-quarante three hundred and forty”
However, in the lesson “Expressing large numbers -thousands/millions/billions - in French” the description begins with:
“Up to neuf cent quatre-vingt-dix-neuf [choses] (999 [things])”
Which example is correct? Should there be hyphens between all parts of the number, or just some of them?
Thank you.
In this lesson, Expressing Numbers from 70 to 999, the paragraph which begins "Note: Before the 1990 Spelling Reform, numbers including et as well as numbers higher than 100 didn’t include the hyphen...", has two examples, "deux cent" and "deux-cent", neither of which have "cent" written as "cents". They should have an "s" at the end shouldn't they, since they are not followed by another number?

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!

Je manque toujours les point d'exclamation. Il y a un règlement sur le sujet? Comment peut-on savoir pendant la dictée, si un point d'exclamation est nécessaire? On peut entendre un ton dans la voix?
Quand La Premiere Guerre Mondial a-t-elle commence. This seems an awkward construction, but perhaps not. Could one say: La premiere Guerre Mondial quand a-t-elle commence? Please excuse the lack of punctuation.
