Correct answer given is with ‘nulle part’ at the end. No problem with that but what is wrong with ‘n’importe où’? I’ve looked at the discussions and can’t find a definitive explanation for appropriate use of one over the other. Doesn’t ‘nulle part’ mean nowhere rather than anywhere? Merci as ever for guidance.
This discussion has me confused- it seems contradictory. The question was L'année ______ Napoléon a été sacré empereur. I knew that 'où' would be correct, but from comments in the thread it stated that 'pendant laquelle' would also be correct. So I tried that but it was marked wrong. I'm also confused as to whether 'dans laquelle' would be ok. There are comments in the thread that imply it is ok, but others that it "doesn't sound right". Can someone clarify? Thanks

It seems a few of the hints (la peinture, etc.) were one past the audio extract where they were needed. Also, I find it unnecessary to correct punctuation, as where a comma should be placed is often not apparent from individual phrases unless you have the entire context.
Statement: Alain a paye l'hotel
Why is the question: Alain paye-t-il l'hotel and not Alain a-t-il paye l'hotel?
Sorry - I can't find the accents!!!
May I suggest that it would be useful to include this link with the list of related grammar and vocab. It explains how Quebec is treated as a country rather than a province, ie. "au Quebec" rather than "dans le Quebec."
En/Dans = in/to + regions/states/counties (French Prepositions)The translation for "the latest season" is given as "la dernière saison." When reading the grammar lesson for dernier, I thought this would mean the final season of the show (i.e. the show has concluded and they are not planning to produce anymore seasons).
I had interpreted "the latest season" to mean the most recent (i.e. previous) season, so I used "la saison dernière" but this was marked incorrect.
Can someone explain further? Thanks!
