Why we don't use " nous apprenons des mots de Pâques "? It can be translated as we learn some Easter words as I understand. Can you explain this to me please? Thank you!

Je crois qu'il y a une erreur d'inscription ici: grammaticalement, et aussi per la narration accompagnante, le premier phrase de dictée doit être "avoir DE la chance". 

Le mot "de" est manqué? 

Why is "on my face" translated with a "tout", as "sur tout mon visage"?

Hi 

I have a question!

Is it ok to use like this? 

->C’est la saison vraiment idéale!

A couple of minor points 1. In the 'best answer' «le kilo» was suggested to be changed to «le kg». I would expect to find the latter on the grocer's sign but not used when the grocer clearly says 'le kilo'. 2. «Coûtent» is being indicated as preferred spelling instead of «coutent». At the least, both are equally acceptable. Académie-française and Le Robert both list «couter» as acceptable, with the latter showing all conjugations used with this form. I understand that most affected words have now been changed so just flagging as one that has not. 

Qu'est-ce que "younger/little brother" ? 

Est-ce «frère plus juene» ou «frère cadet» ?

can you make one that moves the story forward were the vampire is hunting the jornless down

Bonjour!

When to use être à vs the possessive pronouns? Spoken vs written or are they just interchangeable?

Merci :) 

In "j'irai au Carnaval de Nice", why is the word "carnaval" capitalised.?

Their own website does not use a capital for "carnaval" in “le carnival de Nice”. 

See this page where there are 2 instances:

http://www.nicecarnaval.com/le-carnaval

although, strangely, in other parts of the page, in different contexts, the word is capitalized.

Instead of "on doit se faire plasir" could one say "on doit se soigner"?

Instead of "dans la rue" could one say "le long de la rue"?

Instead of "nous irons voir la fanfare en famille" could one say "nous irons en famille voir la fanfare" (I can find several instances of "irons en famille voir" in a Google search).?
