Le Passé Composé + depuis longtemps= not long / not for longMaybe I've not understood this bit of the lesson, but shouldn't this say '= not in a long time' instead of '= not for long'?

Je sais le faireThe translation according to the lesson is "I can do it" but surely to express "I can do it" is "Je peux le faire"?

il fautIs there a lesson on the conjugation of il faut for compound tenses especially the future proche & perfect and Le Passé Proche. I have read 'Il Faut : Expressing Necessity And Obligation" but need something a bit deeper. The conjegations of falloir I find online only do the Passé Composé. I know its just the ' il' conjugation of falloir but I thought a lesson might help it sink in.

Est-ce que tu as de la farine?In the question 'Est-ce que tu as de la farine?' , it sounds like you don't say part of 'Est-ce que'. Why is that?

2 Subjects -Subjonctif

Il a attendu jusqu’à ce qu’il doive partir.

If subjonctif requires 2 subjects- I assume that “he” waited until another “he” had to go?

Pronunciation of "t" in "C'est à moi"Why does the pronunciation accompanying this lesson not pronounce the "t" in "C'est à moi"? I have another French language program (and a French speaking daughter) which does pronounce it. Is this possibly a regional difference? Which is correct in formal Parisian French?

Des vs Quelques

The correct answer to "There are some girls" was Il y a des fille. I had Il y a quelques filles. This was deemed to be wrong. Can someone explain the difference?
