L'Iftar veut dire le dîner, non?  Le soohor est le petit-déjeuner. :)

I have a doubt if the following direct to indirect speech.  Which one of a & b is right? Thanks in advance.  Une mère demande a son fils

A post further down says "soit..soit is used when followed by anything other than a verb". I’ve just done a quiz elsewhere where the answer they wanted was "Soit tu mets du déodorant, soit je te quitte"! Is this a usage that exists but isn’t good French? If so, what’s a better way to express it? I can’t imagine "soit que" is very common and "que" + subjunctive verb seems to be a yes/no situation (eg que tu le mettes ou pas) rather than offering two alternative verbs.

Thank you.

Could you please explain the difference between toucher and toucher à? What do they imply? 

Please share some examples.

(For e.g., what is difference between - Ne pas toucher à mes clés!  &  Ne pas toucher mes clés! )

"I will pass through Paris." Is one of the below incorrect? Why?
