En avril, ne te découvre pas d'un fil

Til April's dead, don't remove a thread (of your clothing)

How do you remember which countries/regions are masculine/feminine? I find this hard.

Can't find a unifying rule for both these. Shouldn't it. Either:

Jolie sac & bleu robe

Or:

Sac Jolie & robe bleue

I know that she did not say Tu vas l'adorer but why didn't she?  Is it an idiosyncratic expression that doesn't require an object?

For example : Can « Ainsi le nom » mean « that’s why the name.»?

Why is the "il lui coupait" in imparfait and not passé composé? It interprets the first actions (aunt speaking), so I thought it should be passé composé.

Especially those with "que" followed by noun.
I can still wrap my mind around and understand "Qu'est-ce que c'est?", but "Qu'est-ce que c'est que un stylo", how are they connected with "que"? 

Forgive me if I wrote some sentence wrong, it's really kind of weird for me to remember 😂

Hi, 

From the quiz:

What are the ways to UNAMBIGUOUSLY say "It is three fifteen PM." ?

Il est quinze heures et quart. - was marked as a wrong answear and I really don't understand why...

I translated this exercise perfectly but scored zero. That was I misunderstood and found the exercise difficult to interpret.
