My quiz today asked how to say It is hot. Yes, it’s “I’ll fait chaud”. But what about the idiomatic with avoir? Can’t it also be “Il a chaud”?

Nouveau can go after the noun, with a change of meaning, right?I chose "un vélo nouveau" as correct as well as "un nouveau vélo". I thought "un vélo nouveau" would mean a bicycle of a design that has just been invented.

Can we talk about the word "pis" ?

I read it somewhere else that pis is also the comparative form of mal. Can we talk about the usage of pis vs mal ? Thanks.

Can you break down or redo this lesson?

This lesson needs to be redone into more than one lesson because it's too complicated, confusing and frustrating. As soon as I finish studying it, I forget what refers to what.

Correct translation of ski-boot

I have checked with 3 different dictionaries i.e. Le Robert de Poche, Harrap’s Shorter French and English dictionary and Wordreference online. Each one defines ski boot as “après-ski” as opposed to “botte de neige” .

Which is the correct response?
