Is this also the correct way of framing inversion questions with Object Pronouns??? -

1. L’Aimes-tu? / L'aimez-vous? [Do you like him/her?]

2. Lui parles-tu souvent? / Lui parlez-vous souvent? [Do you speak to him/her often?]

3. Les avez-vous vus? /  Les avez-vous vues? [Have you seen them?]

Is the above way more formal, than the intonation method used in this lesson?

Why do I see people say "Quel/Quelle est la/le ........?" but in this exercise it is mark wrong?

I used the verb s'éveiller for "wake up", but it was not given as one of the alternatives.  I thought "se lever" meant "to get up (out of bed)", rather than specifically to wake up.  Can you clarify?

How do you know what gender a word is if it's not a person
