Huge - can énorme be added ? Then - can ensuite be addedI used énorme for huge and it got the redline with only 'immense' indicated as correct: a response here from Cécile some time ago stated she used 'énorme' when running through the exercise also.
I frequently come across responses where it would seem either ensuite or puis can be used, but mostly only one is accepted, and I always seem to choose the "unaccepted" word ! (That is why my gambling is limited) Again, a previous response from Cécile in another exercise indicated they are essentially interchangeable, as Larousse also indicates.

Can both énorme and ensuite be added ?
I understand both are used to indicate my, however, I’m not sure when to use one over the other
Can we narrow down the rule to:
"masculine nouns and adjectives ending with the -ien and -on =>
became -ienne and -onne in feminine. (not sure about -en, on-> -enne, -onne)"
As an alternative to en bousculant les passants, couldn’t you say
En faisant les coudes aux passants ?

Can both énorme and ensuite be added ?
The sentence given in English is "Go to bed!" Why isn't it simply "to bed!" to avoid confusing it with "va te coucher!" which is marked as "wrong"?
Does "des lèvres minces" also work?
Why is "en" used in this clause in the 4th paragraph:
what is the difference between annee and an? ive only heard of/used annee before
Maybe there are regional differences, but I would not say "I am going to see with (Julie), but etc etc" as it is used in the sentence in this exercise. That would be "I am going to check with Julie, but . . . " or "I am going to see what Julie says/thinks, but. . . .".
It reads to me as if the literal translation from the French expression "Je vais voir avec Julie, mais ..." has been used here, but it doesn't sound right (to me) in English.
"I am going to see with Julie, but . . " would indicate something along the lines of 'keeping an eye on her', 'giving her a chance to' etc
Can "se passer" be used with dates? Like, "Quand se passe le jour de la Bastille" or "Noel se passe le 25 décembre".
