To second what Syliva said three years ago, statements like "La vie, c'est dure" should be counted as correct on a quiz, not just "La vie est dure."
In the statement "mon fils a de grandes oreilles" , why is it not "DES grandes oreilles"? Ears is plural, and "de" is the article, and "grand" is following a feminine plural suit.... I've noticed this with other items, mostly body parts, like toes, fingers, eyes. They all use a plural article "les" but when describing them, it turns to "de"
If I said "he had cats" it would be "il a des chats", right? What am I not getting!?
I'm learning a piece of music by the composer Georges Hüe. How is this last name pronounced? From the description I saw on https://www.lawlessfrench.com/pronunciation/dieresis/ I am guessing that the "H" is silent, the "ü" is pronounced as a standard "u," and the "e" is voiced instead of silent. Is that correct? (If someone knows IPA, then perhaps that would be a good way to answer?)
"il n'est jamais alle nulle part." This was one of the examples given in the lesson, but I thought that it would be wrong to use *jamais* since "ne ... nulle part" is a negation of its own just like "ne .... aucune"
Hi, I am just wondering if in the following sentences, we could use " l'on" instead of "on" - as per

(L') On passe toujours La Saint Sylvestre entre potes.
(L') On allume la télé pour voir le feu d'artifice de la tour Eiffel,
Et puis, le lendemain matin, comme (l') on aura tous la gueule de bois (comme d'habitude)
(l') on remplira nos flûtes d'Efferalgan et (l') on criera 'Santé!' en rigolant.

Should je suis toujours anxieux also be an accepted answer compared to je suis toujours nerveux? Or perhaps anxieux is considered more a medical condition and too strong in this context?
