This is a phone call, correct?  Why was my word Allo (with accent on the A)marked incorrect in the first line?

so you really just add an -e to the end of a adjective to make it feminine? is there any exceptions?

Am I able to say "Avez-vous décidé?'' instead of "Avez-vous fait votre choix ?" in this  exercise?

 Nous paraissons plus jeunes que nous le sommes.

I took a quiz. I translated "They are calling their dog" as Ils appellent leur chien. However, the correct answer was: Ils s'appellent leur chien. How does one know when to use the reflexive?

I can’t find anything in this lesson or links about third person plural verbs. It would be useful to have examples of this as well as the situation of il/ elle + inversion for verbs ending -ter (which is mentioned in a question below).
