Thank you for this fun exercise. I had never heard of the Dune du Pilat. I looked it up and it is beautiful!
Grammar Question:
In the sentence:
"Comme son nom l'indique, c'est une immense dune de sable", where is the grammar lesson for using the pronoun " l' " in this case? The two pronoun lessons listed don't address this particular usage of the pronoun. Since there isn't a previous idea stated, what does the 'l' refer to? I seem to remember a lesson about this, but couldn't find it in the library. Would it be correct to say, "Comme son nom indique, c'est une immense dune de sable."?
Also, when I read, "Elle mesure environ 102 metres !", I was thinking of the length not the height.
Maybe the phrase could be amended to say, "Elle mesure 102 metres de hauteur." ?
Just for fun, here are the entire measurements from the Wikipedia page:
"The dune has a volume of about 60,000,000 m³, measuring around 500 m wide from east to west and 2.7 km in length from north to south (1.35 km2).[2][3] Its height was 106.60 m above sea level as of 2018."
Merci beaucoup !
