Ils me rappellent de Milli Vanilli. Pourquoi est-ce que nous perdons notre temps en discutant ces individus stupides? Perdonnez-moi; je suis un veillard qui ne possede rien intérêt en tels idiots!
Hi. I'm wondering about the sentence Elles ne se sont pas rasees cette semaine./ They didin't shave this week. You would normally associate shaving with men, not women as in your example. Wouldn't it be better to change the subject of the sentence to ILS ne sont pas rases cette semaine, and a week being a long time to go without shaving, the end could be
ce matin, not cette semaine. and you would get a nice sentence
They (men) didn't shave this morning.

I can just imagine someone trekking through the woods in Old French times and saying, "Not another step." Or a tired monk in some scriptorium copying over an illegible text and saying, "Not another period."
Can you explain why not using “ dans l prison “ in the exercise ?
