Could agenouiller be used for a proposal? Get down on one knee?
Je me demande pourquoi "incomparables" s'accorde avec "légèreté et confort" plutôt qu'avec "une matière". N'est-ce pas la matière qui est incomparable, plutôt que les qualités de la matière ?

pourquoi pas "je n'y manquerais pas pour rien au monde"? does manquer not work here ? i thought this was a standard phrase to use.
In the sentence, ”In any case, we'd better plan for the worst.”, I translated the first part by "Quoi qu'il arrive", which was not accepted. Is this expression correct or incorrect in this context?
Although I found this exercise challenging (I gave myself 49 out of 70) keep them coming as I think I learn a lot, especially by examining the various alternatives.
