Is the hyphen with 41 correct here? On the page Expressing numbers 70 to 999 in French it says no hyphen for 41?

Sorry to rehash this, but I find "follows the opposite pattern" confusing, as it really only applies to the use of avoir + demeuré, which is an intransitive use. Surely être demeuré remains (!) intransitive too, as it’s a state-of-being verb with no object?

Regarding the expression "sont servis", used in "Les plats froids sont servis avec une salade":

I don't understand this conjugation. Is this a reflexive form of the verb servir? Or is it just how menus are written?

Bonjour, 

Why is it "Envoie-la-vous" not "Envoie-vous-la?" Aren't me/te/nous/vous always placed before le/la/les? Merci. 

The speech on this recording is very unclear. I really struggled to make out the words, even after listening to each phrase multiple times.

Why does the "Hint" have: "-'it' = l'hotel", but considers "L'hotel..." as incorrect?  I originally used "Il..." (considered correct) and changed it due to the hint!

Why is the expression not included in the list of given words? Surely it is less common than say enfin, car which are included?

Regards,

What is meant by ..."qui a su conquérir les petits comme les grands" ?

I was interested in this use of "fameuse", does it have a hint of "infamous" here, rather than meaning "famous" ?

 (I know fameux or fameuse can mean famous or celebrated in the context of food.)
