Why does "a surprising choice" become "un choix surprenante" and not "un choix suprenant" ?
Hi there;
One of your examples reads: "On est montés dans la voiture après vous."
Is the "s" on "montés" an error?
I don't know what party favours are, let alone what the French word for them might be.
< Frapper dans ses (les) mains > is acceptable, but is getting the red line currently.
< ramper > also got the red line but is acceptable for 'to crawl', as used by Pampers :

Bonjour mes amis! Je m'appele Parsa et je viens de Leiden. C'est une ville des Pays-Bas. J'aime la ville.
I'm unclear on when to use dernier and when to use passe and this lesson doesn't address that. I hear la semaine derniere and la semaine passe.
The answer " en dernier septembre " given. The durations mentioned in this lesson does not put the "duration" in front of the proper noun. Why? is this a mistake!
"Party favours" in not a term in use in Australia as far as I can ascertain, and I had never heard of them (with either of the meanings I discovered).
Doesn't help much when the urban dictionary definition is essentially 'hard(er) drugs'!
Luckily, overseas sites advertising other 'party favours' gave a different insight, as did wordreference.
