Chacune?

I don't understand why "chacune annee" can't be used. Isn't "annee" feminine, which means the modifying adjective should also be feminine? A little confused.

Prepositions with islands

Hi,

I wondered whether islands take the feminine gender? For instance, how would one say:

in/to/ from Sri Lanka; and

in/to/from Ceylon

Thanks,

Yvette.

Passe compose for a reflexive verb.The answer to a question in the Kwiz was "Nous nous sommes brosse" (with an accent). Shouldn't that have been brosses (with an accent)?

difficile de choisir

The Collins dictionary provides the expression 'difficile à fair' and in the randomly generated examples of 'difficile' gives difficile d'atteindre; difficile à réaliser. difficile à modéliser. Is there a rule as to when 'difficile' is followed by 'de' OR 'à' and does this apply to other adjectives such as in the expression 'dur de choisir' which is given as an alternative answer in the exercise.

I'm sure there is a lesson on this but my mind seems to have gone blank regarding it. Thanks in advance.
