How to introduce one's self in french language.

Composition about myself

Bonjour,

I am missing the distinction in the use of savoir vs connaitre with facts. A good example is "to know a recipe". 

It seems to have it memorized would use savoir, but to know of the recipe would be connaitre. But, from reading the lesson, it seems connaitre would be used in both instances.

Please help!

Thank you

Most examples use de or d' ... but  'du' in Nous avons honte du projet final.

Bonjour!

I joined kwiziq today and I already love it! I just wanted to ask how to practice for a writing test because obviously you cannot predict the question. Would you recommend writing about everything and doing loads of practice questions (however that would take a REALLY long time)? Or do you think just revising and learning the vocabulary and grammar is enough? I just always feel so unprepared for writing tests so I hope joining kwiziq will help.

Merci!

Cette lecture est tres vite pour moi. Pouvez-vous parlez plus lentement, s'il vous plait?

Which is NOT correct?

Ce qu'il dit est difficile à comprendre

Ce que nous faisons est presque impossible

Ce qui est arrivé est incroyable

Ce qui elle demande n'est pas raisonnable -- Correct Answer

I don't understand why this is incorrect.

Bonjour, Ma saison préférée est l'hiver. Je viens d'Inde où il fait toujours chaud. L'hiver canadien est très beau avec son fond blanc. Je ne dérange pas le froid et je l'appricie même. Et la neige , c'est le meilleur moment. Je viens d'apprendre à patiner et j'ai passé mon hiver dernier dans la patinoire. 

Merci beaucoup pour cet exercise. Bonne journée et bonne soirée ( où que vous soyez!).

Why is New Hampshire of course masculine? I am not getting something, I think.

For the sentence " and limit sugary treats " the hint is " and [I'm going to] limit..." so the answer I used was "et j'aller à limite les friandses." but the answer was wrong and the 'correct' answer was "et limiter les friandises." which if I'm right in thinking should mean "and [to] limit sugary treats" not "and [I'm going to] limit sugary treats."
