I get that with a precise number, it should be "personnes", e.g. "cent / milles personnes" . However, what if I use "centaine" or "millier"? Can I say, "une centaine / un millier de gens", or does it still have to be "personnes" ?
Merci
Please can someone explain why is this sentence in the passé composé instead of the imparfait ?
"De plus, j'ai toujours adoré les couleurs des feuilles dans les arbres."I follow the above lesson, but not so clear on when “ça “ is used.
I thought it was "de grosse douleur" - singular - and can't think of any way of being able to hear whether it was singular or plurial. Does it have to be plural because the gums are plural? In English we could say "pain in my gums", but in French perhaps it's necessary to say "pains in my gums"? Or would "ce qui me causait de grosse douleur dans les gencives" still be correct?
[By the way - there's a typo in the full text - "genvices" for "gencives"...]

Let me know if its ok or not

It has endings with je cuiS. tu cuiS and il cuiT
Opposite to regular verb parle
With conjugation of je parlE, tu parleS & il parlE.
Please correct me if am wrong.
