 "Papaoutai" = "Papa où t'es"?

dont has been used like this i think or am i know totally confused?

In the last sentence, why is there no 'que'. Someone else asked but there's no response. 

Can you tell me why it's "avoir à passer du temps" rather than "avoir passer du temps"?  From the lessons I would think the version without "à" would express "having to spend".

Also, in the last phrase it is difficult to understand whether  they wanted a phrase to describe that he would become  a person who translates any language instantly or he would instantly become a universal translator. Are those two things written differently?

Où habites-tu? j'habite à Barcelone.

Why using ( en ) instead of (à ) in this sentence is incorrect?!

Can I please ask for a little explanation on why is there Conditionel Passé in the text: "elle aurait été" and further on. Thank you!

The final transcript and the bottom 'correct answer line' in the exercise still have '...qui émanaient de ce coin de m'ont accompagnéeS .....' instead of just "....m'ont accompagnée" - agreement with the speaker's gender.  The upper line 'best answer' indicated in the exercise is correct however. Cécile has answered a query on this previously. (I think I remember correctly what was presented in the exercise, but can't go back to recheck)

I must admit I often ignore 'agreement' like this when a text is in first person singular, and instead just use the 'agreement' that applies to me.

How would I say, " Reading is my favorite pass-time, it relaxes me"? Where "it" refers to reading. 

Vite is marked wrong. Pourquoi?

The choice I chose was "the birds sang in the trees" as I thought it was descriptive! as in "Le soleil brillait sur la campagne" the sun shone on the countryside. But the correct answer was "the birds were singing in the trees". Why is this and how to tell the difference? Thanks,
