French language Q&A Forum

I think in informal conversations we say like -

Il est pas jeune 

instead of the more formal and more 'grammatically correct' one:

Il n'est pas jeune!

Is it correct !? Responde Sil vous Plait! 

Do we lose points for omitted commas and other punctuation? When I had dictée exercises in France the instructor/narrator always included reading punctuation marks.

I noticed that an example given above " Elles ne l'ont fait expres" means They didnt do it on purpose. Im wondering why it isnt Elles n'en ont pas fait expres. Doesn't en replace phrases after de? 

I got a question wrong, with more than one fault:

Nous nous sommes brossé les cheveux was given as the correct answer, but isn't "brossés" the correct form of the past participle in this sentence?

There are clearly only two participants in this conversation, who are at least friends, if not relatives. 

Should it not be:  Attention de ne pas te brûler  ?

- Tom et Sophia sont très différents ; l'un est calme et l'autre hyperactif.

- Sophia et Tom sont très différents ; l'un est calme et l'autre hyperactif.

Does it matter the Order in which the Male or Female is used, and hence the usage of l'un or l'une ?? How is this decided? Because l'autre is always gender neutral anyways.

But mauvaise goes before. 

Kindly let me know

Hi, in “les enfants sont bel et bien notre avenir” is “bel et bien” an invariable expression? And is that why we don’t have “les enfants sont beaux et bien” instead?

There should have been included in the vocabulary list additional words including

the Halloween characters. These are words that are not part of daily speech.
