I kept hearing elle(s) instead of eux in the second sentence although it made no sense.....but I am a bit deaf. 

Could you explain the word “inspira” in “du naufrage qui inspira ce tableau”, which you translate as “of the shipwreck which inspired this painting“. 

Should this instead be the adjective “inspiré” in the passive voice, as this is the past participle of “inspirer”?

Can u explain the agreement of past participle with the relative pronoun qui 

a) Je dormais quand tu m'as interrompu OR b) J'étais dormir quand tu... In sentence b) is être redundant as the verb dormir can be used?  

Can we use "finalement" instead of "enfin"?

Good construction of phrases, using right tenses 

Why is it not "Je fais du diner" or "je fais le diner"? Why is it "a" instead?
