For the quiz question "Life was harder in those days" I was marked incorrect for saying:
the answer was:
La vie était plus dure à cette époque-là
Why was my answer marked incorrect?

Corrigez-moi . S'il vous plaît, Prof.
From time to time, in literature, I come across forms such as "parlé-je" e.g.
"Pourquoi parlé-je de Victor Hugo?"
Is this interrogative form still in use. Is it ever used in speech (probably not) or is it reserved for literary use?
