I have heard that we shouldn't pronounce the "x" in six and dix before consonants. But in this exercise the "x" is clearly heard in "six mois". Is this correct, and if so is this pronunciation optional before a consonant? (I think I have heard it more frequently like "si-mois")

Passé simple:Yes I agree that it does avoid the passé composé rules but....if it is only used as a written tool, why are there so any questions using it? While there may be a lot of the 77,000+ people using this site to learn French, I would bet a lot of money that most of us are learning to be able to speak it properly. Just my frustration. I would prefer more attention be given to idioms such as the ones in the weekend challenge.

Place of "magnifique"

Why does the place of "magnifique" varies in the sentences below though it's neither an adjective that qualifies a proper noun nor a numerical adjective?

J'ai vu des endroits magnifiques.

Il a mangé de magnifiques gâteaux.
