Hello.
Would "au cours des années" be considered correct too? If not, what would be the difference between "au fil des ans/années" and "au cours des années" ?
Thanks.
Hi. Regarding the Ikea (C1) exercise https://french.kwiziq.com/my-languages/french/exercises/judge/1046/12894963?response=2395393&page=8
It links to this lesson and gives the best answer as "elles m'ont quand même forcée à faire tous les rayons !".
Why would it be forcée and not forcé in this case? Wouldn't it be the same as the indirect object pronouns shown in this lesson?
The correct answer of this sentence is : Je n'avais qu'une ambition
Can we also translate it as ' Il ne me restait qu'une ambition ' ?
Why was “je vais au parc” marked wrong. Isn’t it an alternative way of saying “I go to the park” along with “dans le parc”?
I found this exercise too easy to be a B2 level.
Is there a spelling error in the following?
Après s'être rasé la tête, Carl se sentit mieux.
Carl se sentAIT mieux

Hello All.
I was reviewing pronouns using this page:
https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/indirect-objects-2/
It mentions using the adverbial pronoun "y" and then gives an example:
Il y pense. He’s thinking about her.I thought that "y" could only be used to reference an inanimate object, not a person.
Are there special cases? What am I missing here?
Thank You in advance.

My preferred dictionary, Wordreference, distinguishes a car door from an ordinary door in using the word, portière. Should it not be accepted ?
Would you use "et" for numbers over 100 (e.g. 101, 201, 1001, etc.)?
Cent un, or cent et un, or cent-et-un?
Thank you for your help.
