Pierre,fait-il encore le devoir

Change the negative expression 

J'aime cette histoire

For the adjective for beautiful,masc beau,and fem belle,given the guidance in the study notes the adverb is formed from the masc which ends in a vowel ( beau) ,so I assume it's beaucoup. Any more common adjectives which don't add -ment to the masculine adjective?

Would love to be able to hear an audio version of the mnemonic poem. I don't see if/where it is possible to play the poem. That would be very helpful.

I have been given that words ending in "ion" were female with the exception of "Bastion". Is this another exception ?  Should it be Sa opinion or sa opinion, or is it that the word begins with a vowel ?

In the last sentence, "Bien que la nature soit l'élément principal dans mes projets artistiques, mon but est d'amener les gens à faire une pause, à réfléchir et à ressentir des émotions à travers mon travail.", the verbs amener à and inciter à were accepted for ”to get”.  I tried persuader de, which was not accepted.  Should it be a possibility ? 

Hi,can anyone help please...in the French sentences. 1 " dites- moi ce qui vous intéresse"  and 2 " dites- moi ce que vous préférez, in the first sentence ce qui is described as the subject of the verb,and in the second ce que is described as the object of the I'm generally ok with ce qui  being followed by verb in case 1 and ce que being followed by subject pronoun or noun in case 2. So, in case 2 is vous the subject and in case 1 what is the subject/ object/verb relationship ?

- rose (pink) of course !

I see the origins of fauve (a fawn), mauve (a mallow) and rose (the flower) - but what are the things that écarlate, incarnat and pourpre are named after? Aren't these last three just standard  colour names?

The two answers so far have differing advice. Could Cécile comment please?

Laura Lawless’s explanation seems to accord with Alan’s - se parler is one of "20 verbs for which the reflexive pronoun is always an indirect object" (That is, they’re talking to each other, not talking each other, and parlé is invariable.)
