French language Q&A Forum

Hello,

On this topic page, the examples, exceptions and tips are missing which are there on every topic.

Please do the needful.

In lesson 2 of 10 in A1, on the quiz I was marked as incorrect when I included "He was not..."  as a translation for "On..."  They said that "we" and "you" were acceptable translations, but "he" was not.  I do not understand why not.    I watched the video & read the lesson, but it did not answer my question.

I got one question 'almost' correct even though it was spelled correctly.  However, the answer had no accent marks because I do not have a French Keyboard.  How do I get/use a French Keyboard?

What is the status of new languages?  I am learning what you have done with French and want to do Italian next!

Could you provide additional explanation for this: When the time expressed uses hour numbers above 12 (in the "24-hour clock" -> 13h, 14h...), you use instead quinze, trente, quarante-cinq, probably for pronunciation (and elegance) . 

I am having a hard time understanding these translations in the examples of a 24 hour clock. 

I'm wondering about this sentence: "Des festivites incontournables qui prennent habituellement fin a Mardi Gras, soit la veille du..."

What is the reason for the subjunctive verb tense of "soit" toward the end of this statement? 

I took the quiz and got the answer wrong when I put 'Qu' est' instead of 'Quel est' – so I'm slightly confused because I thought that it should be Qu' since est starts with a vowel?
