Luire in passé simple

Ron, I know this is very late in the game, but I had the same question. You asked for the phrase in question so here it is below.

The answer given is luit without a discussion of the two possible acceptable answers.

Thanks, Chris

Cette nuit-là, la ville ________ de mille feux. That night, the city glowed with a thousand lights.HINT: Conjugate "luire" (to glow) in Le Passé Simple

No capitalisation of the word française?Hi. Is the word française ever with a capital F? I notice that in the article you have 'une colonie française' and also le français. Is there a rule, or does it just never get capitalised?

Merci

Megan

Pronounciation of moins extraverti

Bonjour. I notice that the 's' of moins is not pronounced even though a vowel follows. Is this just a rule, that you don't 'faire la liaison' with the word 'moins'?

Meaning of "passer"

Hi,

In the sentence, "au point de faire systématiquement passer nos besoins avant les siens," please explain the usage of "passer" in this case. It doesn't follow the other examples used in the lesson.

Thanks
