in the lesson, there is an example "Il s’agit de la réforme agraire"

the answer is given that With a modified, specific noun, use de + definite article.

The English translation is given as "It’s a question of land reform" which seems to me to be a non-specific noun.

Can anyone explain why land reform is a specific noun in this case, when in English it appears to be a non-specific noun in this case, i.e. a general question of land reform, not "It's a question of the land reform introduced in the 2017 amendments."

All the other specific noun examples appear to use the definite article in the English translation

Is there a general rule in French about when to spell out numbers? For example in american english I think the rule is to spell out numbers ten or less and just use the number when greater than ten (eg, 12 instead of twelve). Thanks!

Ça veut dire quoi la phrase "pour allumer y a du monde, mais pour éteindre le feu y a plus personne?" C'est un peu bizarre!
