If the answer was "roman policier" shouldn't the question have been "police novel" rather than "detective story" ?

Hello,

I have a question. I understand  how to use the inverted question when you have a vowel -t . But my question is is there an easy way to understand when to use either the Estimate ce- que or the inverted?

Thank you

Nicole

bon outil d'apprentissage des langues, mais trucs très malsains

Why does the phrase take this form and not 'une lecture analytique d'œuvres' ?

Why sometimes in passé composé the conjugated verbs in plural end with '' s '' and sometimes don't end with an '' s ''. 

Ex: '' Elles sont devenues méchantes à cause de toi.'' 

Ex: '' Ils ont vendu (vendre) des croissants dans la rue.'' 

When to put an '' s ''? 

Thanks in advance :) 

According to Le Robert and Larousse (Word Reference too) the French noun for the English 'oval' is «ovale» (masculine). The lesson is currently miscorrecting this to 'oval'. Also, I understand that not all acceptable answers can be included but «lèvres minces» is the first option given by Le Robert, and the phrase my French wife would have used on first thought ahead of «lèvres fines» - is it difficult to add this as an acceptable option at the very least?

In which cases would I use each of lequel/laquelle/lesquels/lesquelles

For example, for "Les pâtisseries sont toutes délicieuses, mangez n'importe ----" would I use laquelle or lesquelles, or does it depend on what the speaker is trying to convey?

Thanks!

Doesn't "s'attendre à ce que" take the subjunctive? Or is there an exception in this case that wasn't noted in the lesson? Attendre quelqu'un vs s'attendre à quelque chose = to wait vs to expect in French
