When the answer for the 1st question of the comprehension test was given, the Russian word for instruments (инструменты) showed up at the end of the sentence for some reason. I saved a screenshot of it if somebody needs to see it.
Why does Kwiziq mark you down for either not using punctuation marks which are not spoken in the dictation or for not placing them a letter distance away from the phrase they refer to?
I'd really like the comprehension exercises to be in French - please!
Why aren't "guillemets" (chevrons) accepted ? Dans « Le cœur a ses raisons ». My understanding is the chevrons are the standard quotation marks while the double quotes, as in English, are only used when quoting inside quotes, for example, « something "else" ».
I am not getting difference between Quelle est ta nationalité? And Quelle est votre nationalité?

In the translation of ” and I'm skint [US: broke] because of all the gifts that I must buy”, they use the expression ”à cause de” for because of.

My question refers to the "hotel de luxe". Since the "stars" are plural wouldn't one assume that they leave their "luxury hotels", (plural)? Which would be: "leurs hotels de luxe" ? Or, is the possessive here always expressed in the singular, "leur hotel de luxe"?
Another question is about the use of the present tense in "j'admire". Would it be incorrect to say, "...que j'admirais depuis toujours"
Merci beaucoup !!
"j'ai acheté un sac à dos qui est très à la mode en ce moment, et j'ai pris un nouveau stylo-plume et beaucoup de cartouches d'encre."
Why isn't neuf used here? Nobody, generally, buys a used object when going back to school.
