There is a typo I think in the table of irregular adverbs. Meilleure translates as best, not better.

Is it acceptable to say here instead:

Sur laquelle elle s'allongeait en rêvassant pendant des heures.?

Hi all, I am not getting my head around the sentence- C'est la fameuse "auberge espagnole" du titre.. why is du titre at the end. thanks 

for "mardi prochain"?  the quiz asks about mardi prochain.  I fully understand using the present for near future.  got it.  But "next Tuesday" is not so "near" that the future tense should be wrong! at least both options should be right.

HI, love the dictées. I get muddled with punctuation. The fluctuations of the tone of voice is not always a good hint, especially when we stop and start mid-sentence. Short of my  listening to the entire dictée a few times prior to starting, and taking notes, do you have any hints that might help? Thanks.

In one of quiz’s question it asks something like qu’est cet homme? And the answer is ; c’est (name of the person). I was wondering if we can say “il est…” instead of c’est. Since its asking about a particular person and while studying “il/elle est” it says if its asking about a specific thing we should use it. I need a bit clarifications please. 

It seems that inoubliable is an adjective for année, with "et ce film" being only an interjection, so that inoubliable should be singular.  If it were written "qui rendront cette année et ce film" then the plural would be required.  

I think I understand the basic concept here. Is there an easy way to remember which verbs are followed by à? The list is VERY long. 

I'm sorry but it's very hard to follow the explanations.

In this lesson, you basically mean:

des autres = the other(s) - specific ones, whenever "de" would be in front

d'autres = other(s) - unspecific, generic

Fish which Japanese people love (raffoler de) are becoming extinct.

Les poissons dont les japonais raffolent de sont en voie de disparition.

Why is the sont conjugated as well, I thought two verbs couldn't follow each other in conjugated form. I though that one needed to be in infinif form.
