Can gagner be used for passing an exam same as réussir/avoir/ obtenir? Am asking because i used it once while speaking to someone. After this lesson i wonder if i used it wrongly.
An observation
When I leave the dashboard to do a Kwiz, I then get the option to do another Kwiz.. (Test recommended again) and continuing without going back to the dashboard and often find that there are new questions coming up on subjects that I have not studied.. then when I go back to the dashboard, I discover that there are a whole load of new lessons.
Any chance of indicating next to the Kwiz again box that there are new lessons on the dashboard?

In the lesson about dimensions, you say "Note that in this case the adjectives haut/long/large/profond agree in gender and number with the subject they refer to."
But you only give a gender agreement example for "profond". Do "haut" or "long " or "large" change spelling with gender?
Hi, in the mini-quiz, it gives une histoire très interessante as correct. However, I understood that if the adjective is modified by an adverb of only one syllable, it comes before the verb. As in the given example un très joli manteau. So by that logic, it should be une très interessante histoire?
