Les pronoms demonstratifs

Parmi les deux professeurs celui-ci est aimable mais, celui-là est stricte.         

Or 

Parmi les deux professeurs celui-ci est aimable mais, celle-là est stricte.

As "stricte" is feminine adjective, should we use celle-là or can we use celui-la also?  Please can anyone clarify my doubt.   Thanks in advance.

Why is it wrong to write it without the 's' ..? i.e. vous étiez couché (not couchéS)I answered the question as if we're talking to 1 person in a formal way

Doubt in Au marché (A1)

Bonjour Madame,

What does the phrase “Qu’est-ce que vous avez de bon aujourd’hui?” mean ?

I am unable to get the meaning in the dictionary.

Merci d’avance.

Une suggestion...


J'avais du mal à bien entendre cette vidéo à cause de la musique.....c'est un problème additionnel pour l'apprenant de français, surtout pour les gens qui sont un peu malentendants. Est-ce que vous pouvez offrir un choix...avec ou sans musique ?

How is "ils" the object of the sentence «Ils entrent dans la salle»?

The question was:

In this sentence, which is the subject of the verb? «Ils entrent dans la salle» Ils / entrent / dans la salle


I'll appreciate your help, thanks.

"j'ai très faime"

"J'ai très faime !"   is literally, "I have very hunger" which seems odd.  I thought it would be "J'ai beaucoup de faime !" or I have lots of hunger.  Why?

B2 writing exercise June 9,2018

In the B2 writing exercise, occurs the following phrase: le Ministère a finalement confirmé ce lundi for: the Ministry finally confirmed this Monday. 

 If ce is a demonstrative adjective, this construction seems incorrect. I translated it as le Ministère l'a confirmé lundi.

Improvement possible

Would be more useful is we could see what gender were countries starting with a vowel.

I think when I was learning French years ago I was taught, "Qui est-ce que vous êtes?" to make the question with est-ce que. Is that too formal?
