Hi all,
Why would one say "il me reste des croissants" when "croissants" is a plural word and "il me reste" is a singular phrase? Is this just an expression?
I thought that between noon and midnight (including midnight), one never used "moins", but always used minutes past. Or, is midnight perhaps regarded as a.m.?
I can't find it in any lessons which explain this, other than one example in the A1 lesson. There is no explanation, however. Can you please explain to me the rule about when you can and cannot use "moins"for minutes to the hour.
Thank you
Are we supposed to use definite articles with adorer,Aimer, detester and préférer verb instead of partitive articles?

Which one is correct?
Who would say "Carefree" after someone asks for their receipt? Is that a Britishism? Would not "No problem" or "No worries" be a better translation?
The woman is describing the terrible hotel and at one point says "... et après que je me suis brossé les dents le premier soir ...". Shouldn't it actually be "je me suis brossée les dents" since it's the woman talking? I wrote brossée during the test and kwizbot marked it as incorrect.
thanks, Scott
When is the formula "finir + de" used? I noticed this in a few of the examples, where it was "conjugated form of finir + de + infinitive verb"
