< Frapper dans ses (les) mains > is acceptable, but is getting the red line currently.

< ramper > also got the red line but is acceptable for 'to crawl', as used by Pampers :

Bonjour mes amis! Je m'appele Parsa et je viens de Leiden. C'est une ville des Pays-Bas. J'aime la ville.

I'm unclear on when to use dernier and when to use passe and this lesson doesn't address that.  I hear la semaine derniere and la semaine passe.

The answer " en dernier septembre " given. The durations mentioned in this lesson does not put the "duration" in front of the proper noun. Why? is this a mistake!

"Party favours" in not a term in use in Australia as far as I can ascertain, and I had never heard of them (with either of the meanings I discovered). 

Doesn't help much when the urban dictionary definition is essentially 'hard(er) drugs'! 

Luckily, overseas sites advertising other 'party favours' gave a different insight, as did wordreference.

I have found a number of diving sites that use < plongée libre >, as well as < plongée en apnée >. Decathlon uses both in its advertising, and Collins also translates 'free-diving' to < plongée libre >.

And for snorkelling - Larousse gives < faire de la plongée avec un tuba >, which seems to be about the only expression that gets the red line. (A mask is not essential equipment for snorkelling)

why is fringues not okay instead of vetements? Why is les toilettes not correct in this sentence " Oui, bien sûr, il est dans la salle de bains, sous le lavabo."?

Can we use the expression il y a in this sentence, insted of "où est"? Bastien, tu sais où est le panier à linge  ?
