In the example, "Elle n'est pas stupide du tout!", "stupide" is used as an adjective.

However, the formulation given above says: ne + conjugated verb + pas du tout + (infinitive)

Can someone clarify this please. 

In the lesson, we read that 

3. Direct object pronouns le/la/les are placed before indirect object pronouns moi/toi/lui/nous/vous/leur

Aren't there other DOPs such as nous/vous/me/te? And do those qualify as preceding IOPs?

Thanks!

When and how do we know when to place the word in a sentence ,it's  so confusing 

So how are we going to know  if the question  is a formal or an informal one

La pile and la batterie are both translations for a battery. Is the distinction that la batterie can be charged and is built-in to devices like a cell phone, and la pile is the round object that's used, for example, in a flashlight. It can not be charged, and needs to be replaced when it dies.

Please can someone explain the use of ‘envoûter de par?’ I would have expected ‘envoûter de...’ or ‘envoûter par...’

Also, in the same paragraph, can ‘que l’on rencontre’ equally be ‘qu’on rencontre?’

Thanking you in advance! 

1) On se voit vendredi soir = we meet every Friday night? or one specific night

2)On se voit le vendredi soir = we meet every Friday night?

3) On se voit au soir = On se voit le soir?

Thank you

Why isn't there a "ne" with "avant qu'ils soient dévalisés"?

why cant you say cinq heures trente, it doesnt say write as if 12 hour clock but only acceptes cinq heures et demie du matin?

In  the sentence starting, "L'année dernière, j'ai découvert . . .,"  isn't "last year" referring to a unit of time that happened once, so wouldn't "l'an dernier" be correct?  I thought "l'année dernière" would indicate that the discovery happened multiple times over the course of a year. Please advise.
