Partir, sortir, quitter.

Questions on ‘partir, sortir, quitter’ which comprise one, some or all answers are so inconsistent, I find it very irritating. Sometimes when I choose all three (excluding ‘laisser’ of course), only ‘partir’ is the answer deemed acceptable. sometimes, when I select ‘partir’ only, all three are given as correct. More context please.

Beautiful sport?I loved this beautiful sport. The French translation is missing beautiful : j’adorais ce sport.

Would it just be ...ce beau sport. ? Thanks

how to?

I'm not sure how this is supposed to work. Am I supposed to try and read aloud along with it or just listen to it? And somehow, if I hit the pause button in not exactly the same place, I get 2 voices reading at the same time. And it doesn't rewind? I just have to listen straight through?

Can this be recorder with slower audio? While the speaker may talk that way, she is much too fast to catch all the words and the liaisons

Position of prochaineWhy do we have “la prochaine fois”? Normally I see “prochain” placed after the noun, such as, to pick a random example: “J'irai courir la semaine prochaine”.

Multiple Choice

I think Kwizik always uses "Multiple choice" questions for this section. Could you include a question where we have to write the answer or part of the answer.

'En quoi tu t'es inscrite ?'

I understand that the preposition here has to be en but I can't really get to the bottom of why. Chris has said in this discussion that the form is 's'inscrire en qqch...' but I don't really see this supported by dictionaries where à and dans seem more commonly cited. Is it that the preposition comes before the word quoi ?

use of 'ne' with avant que

One of the correct options used "avant que" without the "ne". I gather this is permissible sometimes?
