Deuxièmement/Deuxième

Hi, in the line

 

“Second, express your deepest feelings.”

 

for which the answer is

 

“Deuxièmement, exprimez vos plus profonds sentiments.”

 

Should this be “Deuxième”. Same point for Troisièmement & Quatrièmement.

Bonjour Brian,

Here, "Second" means "secondly" (and is an adverb rather than a ordinal number) - which in French is translated with "deuxièment" (the same is valid, for "third / fourth" etc).

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
