Not sure if this belongs here as another one of the meanings of être + passé or if it's just idiomatic, but I came across this variant in the J'adore nager listening excercise https://french.kwiziq.com/my-languages/french/exercises/overview/629, and neither this lesson nor the other one Passer/se passer/se passer de - the different meanings of the verb "passer" in French, helped decode it. According to what my search turned up, it means "it's over", or "it's gone"? It does make sense with the context.
I am surprised by the english translations provided above. For example:
I would translate the first as
"She's not at all stupid"
Elle n'est pas du tout stupide!
She's not stupid at all!
Elle n'est pas stupide du tout!
She's not stupid at all!
Quel age tu as? is this right sentence?
