it could be a strong belief so why marked wrong in favour of penser

Why is it "Mes pieds sont gelés" rather than "Les pieds sont gelés"?  I understood that you could use la, le, l' when referring to your own body parts.  How can you tell which to use?

Is it 

Un des meilleurs repas que nous ayons jamais faits 

Or

Un des meilleurs repas que nous ayons jamais fait? 

J'ai mis le deuxième et on m'a dit que c'était juste mais le texte final met le premier. 

Est-ce qu'on s'accorde donc le repas au singulier ou au pluriel dans cette construction du superlatif? 

Merci! 

Bonjour! Un exemple dans cette leçon indique:

>Exemple: Le joli garçon est avec la jolie fille.

Pourquoi c'est "la jolie fille" et pas "la fille jolie"?

[I wrote this in French as practice; but I thought that adjectives follow nouns in French? Is there a lesson going over how to order adjectives?

In addition, I'd love any feedback on the presentation/construction of my question! Writing longer sentences in French is hard.]

Hi, I wonder about passer par qqn, there are examples as follows:

Yann passera par chez Laura après le travail.

Ma tante est passée par la boulangerie en venant ici

But what about: Yann passera chez Laura ... & Ma tante est passée à la boulangerie.(I've just omitted par). 

Isn't the meaning the same here ? Thank you.

I know the masculine form is more dominant than the feminine form. How come the correct answer in this quiz is ‘zombie’ not ‘zombi’?

The lesson says 'Elle rappelle Lady Gaga à elles.' is wrong, yet it follows the same structure as ' il rappelle son ex a Maria'. Is this something to do with 'elles'? is it just grammatically inelegant?

Google translates "tu dois du repos" as "you need some rest." But it sounds like Kwiziq only wants us to use devoir before an infinitive. However, the lesson only says "sometimes you can use devoir" without any explanation or examples. Despite the fact that multiple people have been complaining about this for years!

I think also the English translation might be tripping me up in certain instances. Like "you need to take a day off" in English uses the infinitive verb "to take" but in French it's "you need " which is a noun. It would be nice if the lesson explained that. 

I hate having to just memorize the quiz maker's answer without understanding why Kwiziq thinks it's correct.

Thanks for all these lessons!
