Il y a des fleurs partout.

Négation : il n'y a de fleurs nulle part.

Ou - il n'y a pas de fleurs nulle part.

Aussi 

Je fais du jogging. Négation : je ne fais pas de jogging ou je ne fais pas du jogging.

Dans cette phrase, est-ce que du est articles partitives ou contractés ?

Please help for the following : 

What are the differences between these two sentences

1) Il habite à dix minutes de Marseille. 

2) Il habite à 10 min de Marseille. 

My answer was the number one, but the Kwiziq marked it wrong. 

Thank you!

I was wondering would these two sentences I made up be correct? I'm trying to understand the difference between the 12hr and 24hr.

Je me couche à vingt-deux heures 

I go to bed at 10pm

Je me révielle à neuf heures 

I wake up at 9am

Thanks

Nicole

Why is tu t-appelles Gary incorrect please ? 🤔

Can one also say 'dont les Celtes' in this situation?

I put "passé" rather than "passée" - usually a straightforward mistake - but on this occasion, I'm thinking and thinking, but I can't see what it is that "passée" is agreeing with. La soixantaine? Or Forme physique? And if so, why ?

For this Kwiziq question I put: Katie appelle Sonia au cas où elle aurait du retard

It was marked wrong, but I think that should also be accepted? avoir du retard = to be late

Nick

p.s. is it less common to use avoir du retard than être en retard?

In this structure in English, you can use either an object pronoun or a subject pronoun plus a verb. You can't use a subject pronoun without a verb.  "She is taller than me." OR "She is taller than I am." BUT NOT "She is taller than I."
