How do we know which form of adverb has to be used...the one ending in '...ment' or the regular form?

- Marie chante le plus fortement.   V/S   Marie chante le plus fort.

- Jeanne parle le plus doucement.   VS Jeanne parle le plus doux.

- Il conduit le plus lentement.  V/S  Il conduit le plus lent.   

How do we know which form of adverb to use in such situations?

The recommended translation for 'tiny hairy faces seemed worried' is 'de minuscules visages hirsutes avaient l'air inquiet' - inquiet agreeing with air rather than the subject visages.

Why is this jusque and not jusqu'à?

Hi, a couple of lines had missing audio. 

In the C1 writing exercise The King Cake, there is the phrase ‘ he or she will name out loud each person, who will then be given a piece of galette’.

The recommended translation of ‘who will then be given’ is ‘à qui on donnera ensuite’.

You could also say ‘à laquelle on donnera’ ?

What are the positives and negatives of moving to the countryside in French

Never sure about this one. I use ‘sortir’ when I’m leaving a house, for instance, but how does one ‘go out of’ a town? Seems to me that the examples using ‘partir’ and ‘quitter’ are the only correct ones, depending on context.

When can you use  in past tense or 

What would be the difference between “I smell nothing” and I feel nothing”. I thought to feel in this case might require a reflexive construction?
