Je vais déposer les quelques si je comprends 😂😂😂

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

Cette sculpture est la plus belle ...

Please could you explain why 'que vous ayez jamais vue' is not accepted, when the English states 'this sculpture is the most beautiful you have ever seen'. There is no Hint to say whether the 'you' should be 'to a friend' and the only French answer accepted is 'que tu aies jamais vue'. Merci!

My question relates to "Kwiz functionality", rather than anything in this lesson. I could ask the same question in any other Lesson.

I prefer the 2-question Kwizzes to the 10-question Kwizzes.

If I try to repeat the same quiz, I get the message: "This lesson is already in your notebook. Go to your notebook now to kwiz this topic as many times as you like." 

That's fair enough.

I do:

 - Go to Notebook
 - Open this same lesson.
 - (The URL is obviously different, but text is the same). 
 - Scroll down to the 2-question Kwiz
 - I see the same negative message. 

So, how do I "...kwiz this topic as many times as you like." ?

Thanks.

Why "fin janvier" but not "a la fin de janvier"

Where's the rest of the Scrooge story? I'm only seeing acte 1 scene 2??

C'est un reportage

There is a Canadian talk-show / competition show, called "100% Local", where four contestants from different regions of Canada tell stories of different people and places unique to their region of Canada.

In season 6, episode 3 of this talk-show (at about 16:25 minutes into the show), one of the contestants is telling the story of a historical criminal named Léo-Rhéal Betrand, who was handsome, charming, and became kind of a criminal celebrity in the eyes of the public. Here's part of what she said (taken from the subtitles) :

====

Il est encore arrêté, va encore en cour, remet son habit de Tuxedo Kid, et là, tout le monde capote sur son histoire parce qu'en plus, il est beau, il est charmant, il a tout, dans le fond, pour être une star, c'était une vedette qui a été prise dans le système judiciaire au lieu d'être prise dans le star system. Son histoire va se rendre jusqu'en Cour suprême, et finalement, il va être pendu à la prison de Bordeaux. Et il y a un historien de Gatineau qui s'appelle Raymond Ouimet, qui a écrit un livre à propos de Léo-Rhéal Bertrand, qui est sorti il y a quelques mois seulement. Et ce livre-là raconte toute l'histoire fascinante de ce criminel chanceux ou de ce chanceux criminel.

Questions:

2. Why does this contestant say both? That is, is it a subtle joke? Is it to sound playful? Is it a pun? Is there some implied content or attitude that is achieved by using this? etc
