French language Q&A Forum

I always learn so much with these Weekend Workouts; thanks for providing a way to practice as we learn. 

Is it possible to provide the translations or at least a common source to look up the words and phrases suggested ahead of the Writing Challenges?  I have often chosen different words and phrases than are used in the later given context.

Also, more specifically to this exercise, aren't we to use Le Présent when stating situations that are habitual?  Here the Passé Composé is chosen for "Nous avons joué aux cartes, comme d'habitude ...," so I misunderstood something. 

Merci !

In a quiz just taken, in making an adverb from "courant",  courammant was marked wrong and couramment was correct.  Is courant just different?

The sunglasses are not yours.... What is the difference between Ces lunettes de soleil ne sont pas les vôtres? and Ces lunettes de soleil ne sont pas les tiennes? Both are listed as possessive pronouns for "yours".

J'ai des chocolats dans ma poche. (I have some chocolates in my pockets.)

Could you explain why the translation is "my pockets" rather than "my pocket"?

Thank you

I used constater to say I noticed the strange transaction. It’s not offered as an alternative to remarquer. Can you tell me if it is wrong to use it in this case. 

"J'habite 11 rue des Fleurs, à La Courneuve."

Is this the way of writing while giving the complete address?

I thought arrière was an invariable adjective...?

Hello, 

I just took the quiz and it said I also needed to have En as well besides putting L' but it doesn't specify more then one it just says how would you say?. Can you clarify this?

Thanks

Please help!

I say il faisait froid ce matin and my French neighbours nearly always respond with " oui il faisait frais".

Am I wrong to use froid - should I say 

frais ?
