Le mot est magnifique, bien sûr.
The answer to #7 on the calendar is la neige but I answered une boule à neige (a snow globe) because that's what it looks like to me.
I have no idea what this story is about. Very frustrating. Also, the audio was way too fast and running together.
As 'secondary (or high) school' covers student ages from 12-13 to 18-19, it is not a simple choice between 'lycée' and 'collége' in my part of the world. It may be better to give an age range clue for the students if looking for a specific French level of schooling to be given, as there is no uniform standard in English.
It is somewhat reassuring to find so many others have found this confusing! Hope it is reviewed soon. Needs clarification and simplification, and use of standard symbols to replace unspecified letters. I always do the lesson first and then check the comments - this is one of those that makes me think I should read the comments first. When can a review be expected?
I thought that with streets , roads we used the preposition Dan’s... then why are we using sur for chemin?
Still unsure about when to use article “le” and days of the week. Could you elaborate more on this idea of specific context, maybe w an example or two?
I was surprised by the sentence “Je ne peux pas imaginer ce que serait ma vie”, as I normally see “ce qui [verb]” and “ce que [subject pronoun + verb]”. Should it be “ce qui serait”?
