The correct answer is 'I love him although he is a bit lazy', and not 'I like the fact that he is a bit lazy' but how would the latter answer differ from the example in French?
The phrase "C'est une recette" has a confusing pronunciation, just checking if it is correct?
Quand j'étais jeune, je cousais et créais tous mes costumes, pour moi et mes amis. Plus tard, je préférais me promener en voiture et admirer les maisons joliment décorées.
The hint for La trahison capitalises the title ("La Trahison des Images"), but the answer requires lower case "trahison" and "image". Is there a correct form or can either be used?
In the example above 'Oh là là. Il aime vraiment parler de lui !' why is there no même after lui? Also the 'Je n'aime que moi ?' why no même ?
In the lesson you give these examples:
Mes filles sont toutes honteuses de leur comportement.
Lucie et Juliette sont tout heureuses de se retrouver.
Do both the words honteuses and heureuses not have a mute 'h' and therefore, why is it 'toutes' in one example and 'tout'in the other?
Thanks in advance

why are you using mon devoir for homework. I thought it should always be mes devoirs
Is "avoir un bec sucré" too much of an anglisism ?
In one of the dictées, I ran into the expression "d'autant que je me souvienne"...par exemple, je n'aime pas les aliments sucrés d'autant que je me souvienne." I haven't liked sweet foods for as long as I can remember (or maybe more literally "for as much as I remember." Why is "de" used before avant que? Does that kind of replace "for" in English? And why does it take the subjunctive? I'm guessing that perhaps it takes the subjunctive because memory is fallible and perhaps there's an element of doubt? Perhaps one is not remembering correctly?
