In this lesson one of the questions was "Marie a manqué l'école ". I would have answered this with "Marie (has) missed school." Of course this answer wasn't available and the right answer was "Marie didn't go to school." Wouldn't this be easier to understand if written like " Marie n'est pas alleé à école ?" or are all similar events ( not going/doing somewhere/something) expressed by  "Manquer de ?" Thanks,  Heather.

Why is "Et la galette ? - Je l'ai donnée à lui !" an incorrect translation?

Reference to A1 Test La Republique francais

Why is tout le monde correct but not chacun? Both are pronouns

Hello. I think I misunderstood the rules about the using cent and cents.
"Cent" s'accorde uniquement s'il n'est suivi d'aucun chiffre.

Following this, I thought the above phrase should be "cinq cents élus".  Did I understand it correctly ? Or is this rule outdated? Please enlighten me. Thanks.
