translation of " des patins à parquet" into English"Par exemple, aussitôt que nos parents nous avaient déposés chez elle, elle nous faisait troquer nos baskets flambant neuves pour des patins à parquet qui empestaient le dépoussiérant et la cire."

My translating tool says that "des patins à parquet" are "floor gliders." Anyone have any idea what kind of shoes they might be?

futur simple versus conditionnelCould the futur simple be replaced with the conditionnel throughout most of this exercise and still make perfect sense as it would in english?

Why isn't revêtir an option

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.

Bonjour,

I noticed that in the video attached above, sometimes du is used rather than de with retard, for example - J'ai eu du retard / Le train a du retard.

While in this lesson, it mentions that "avoir (5 minutes) de retard".

Is it when "avoir ... de retard" uses with no specific time, the "de" can change to "du" ?

Merci d'avance!

Tecla
