French language Q&A Forum

Hi, I was doing a writing exercise translating "So that all was ready on time." The correct answer was "Pour que tout soit prêt à temps,"' and not "'Pour que tout soit prêt à l'heure." Why is it better to use à temps in this sentence?

hello, could you please explain the reference to  point median in the l'écriture inclusive text? I'm sure it should be obvious but I'm not getting it! Merci.

I've noticed a few examples of this in previous reading exercises where the present tense is used to describe the past. Ex "En France c'est Napoléon..." rather than, "En France, c'etait Napoléon...", even in the translation when you click on it translates that phrase in the present as 'In France it was Napoleon'. I can see that the following phrase uses the passé composé so I'm just not quite clear why those two phrases don't have to agree in their tenses? 

Thanks :)

please explain when to use ennuyant and ennuyeux or ennuyeuse

sometimes I'm told it means boring, sometimes annoying, quite confusing, as i cant make out which is which.
