two issues:
#1: question was: “What is the French number ‘14,052’ in English?” This question should read “What is the ENGLISH number ‘14,052’ in FRENCH?” A lot of your number questions are written back to front.
2nd issue: I answered ‘14 052’ but it was marked wrong and the less common ‘14.052’ was given as the correct answer. But my answer is correct...?
In this instance is 'corbeille' an acceptable alternative noun for 'panier'?
In the sentence "Tu veux des épinards", Why is it "des épinards"? I understand that des is used to mean some when things are countable. But I don't understand why spinach is considered to be countable,
Several times you have used "profiter de" to mean to enjoy. The dictionary I looked at defined profiter a to mean "to be of benefit to" and profiter de as "to take advantage of." Neither of these seems (to me. at least) to imply to enjoy or to take pleasure from. Why do you choose to use it rather than something like prendre plaisir de or some other more enjoyable-sounding term? ( Sorry, but the computer doesn't seem to respond to the holding down of letters for which an accent or other diacritical mark is needed, so my questions are grammatically incorrect......)
