When I look up burgond/e in wordreference or anywhere else, nothing appears. But, Bourgogne does show for the Burgundy region. Is a burdgond/e someone form the region? Why is it not bourgogne/bourgogné or something else more similar?

One of the quiz questions was "Le Comte Dracula habite _____________ Roumanie.

I wrote "en la" because I assumed, per the regular rule, that Romania is feminine (therefore takes -en) and is a country, not a city, and would require the article "la".  Since the sentence is not about going-to or coming/being-from, it would require the article, n'est-ce pas?

You really need to get some kind of speed adjustment to these "beginners" exercises I am get frustrated with them. Lines like: "Il y a aussi des nuages noirs dans le ciel" and "donc je pense qu'un orage se prépare" and just too fast. I was feeling happy with myself until I got to the second part and the only reason why I couldn't get them was because of speed!

And yes I will log this with support again.

Thank you

Am still confused on how to use ce and cet pliz its still a problem am still left out

Please could you explain why, in your question, 'I watch the film', it was ''I' who was the subject , but in your next question 'Alice watches the girl', it was 'the girl' who was the subject of the sentence. 

- questions about unspecific things or a person such as "what/who is it?" : C'est + article/possessive adjectives + noun 

- questions about general things such as "what do you think about / do you like (general stuff)?" : C'est + adjectives

- questions about specific things or a person such as "where is it / how do you like it?" : Il/elle est + adjectives

I notice that in most of the exercises, "J'aime beaucoup" is often used when followed by a noun, (e.g. J'aime beaucoup mon cousin Benjamin; Elle aime beaucoup les livres)

Whereas "J'aime bien" is often followed by verb (e.g. j'aime bien rester chez moi)

I am just wondering if they are completely interchangeable and if there is a tenancy of beaucoup use more with nouns and bien more with verbs.

What if the turtle pet is male, and its name is Marc. Would it be "Mon tortue s'appelle Marc"

Same goes to cow, the word "vache" is feminine, if we want to say a male cow, would it be "un vache"?

I wrote "et je revêtirai les vêtements confortables" and it corrected it to "et je mettrai les vêtements confortables". Why can't I use the verb revêtir here? It's the word I always knew for "to put on [clothes]" and according to my dictionary that's exactly what it means.
