1) Ce sont les plus beaux paysages de la région.    VS.   Ce sont les paysages les plus beaux de la région.

2) C'est la moins difficile question.    VS.    C'est la question la moins difficile.

3) J'achète le moins cher pull.      VS.   J'achète le pull le moins cher.

Is there a difference between the 2 ways of writing? Are both correct?

Why not?

Ils me n'ont pas pris...  I thought object pronouns preceded the negation.

i don't understand the translation. why is "she would read" translated to "elle lisait" and not "elle lirait"?

i thought that "would" is conditional verb in english so it should be translated too to conditionnel in french? need any explication

In the phrase, "où ils lui ont confisqué son portable",  Why is "lui" there?  If it's a pronoun for "him" why does it need to be there?  (The subject is "they", the verb is "confiscated" and the object is "his mobile phone".)  What grammer rule requires "him" to be part of this sentence?  Is there a lesson that explains the answer (I feel like I've missed something).

why is it fais instead of fait

Why is “You remind him of Audrey Hepburn." ? Translated into “Tu lui rappelles Audrey Hepburn.”

Isn’t it missing an “à” as per lesson guidelines? Shouldn’t it be “Tu rappelles Audrey Hepburn à lui”?

Can we say aux agents de bord instead of avec les agents de bord?

Can you also use the verb détester as in je déteste

Bonjour,

In one of the examples above:
Maintenant que ses parents n'étaient plus là, elle devait s'occuper de sa sœur.

However I'm confused because it states that Devoir with l'imparfait is "was supposed to [do]", however the translation is:
Now that her parents were gone, she had to take care of her sister.

Why is it not:
Now that her parents were gone, she was supposed to take care of her sister.

Merci
