Hi,
how do we know when a nationality used in a sentence is an adjective or a noun?
thank you

Why is the correct answer « fusilier » not « tirailleur »?

In this text, the adverb "necessarily" in the sentence "I don't believe that it is necessarily a negative concept" is translated only as "necessairement", without "forcément" being one of the alternatives.  When would you use one adverb rather than the other?

Sorry to rehash this, but I find "follows the opposite pattern" confusing, as it really only applies to the use of avoir + demeuré, which is an intransitive use. Surely être demeuré remains (!) intransitive too, as it’s a state-of-being verb with no object?

Hi, I don't know what's wrong but the text seems to be in English instead of French! Not sure if this is a problem from my side or yours. Also, cannot view the Blindness article, it shows up blank when I click on it.

I wrote, "Je n'ai pas le montant exact." 

Would that have worked in that setting?

Is there a rule about using hyphens with 'et un' when added to thirty, etc.?
