Why is "leur" the object pronoun for la police when la police is a singular noun?

Is complète an acceptable alternative to 'finit' ? 

My understanding is that for a general comment, 'C'est' is used when followed by any determiner.

i cannot identify words which as masculine or feminine??

please help me!

One option given here for "my flowery dress" is "ma robe a fleuris."  Why not "ma robe fleuries"?

Bonjour,

In one of the questions, ""Il a huit amis, dont cinq sont anglais", I see "sont" being used. But in all the examples in this lesson, no verbs are used in the "dont" clause. 

Can I then also say, ""Il a huit amis, dont cinq anglais" ? Could someone clairfy?

Merci.

I am really struggling in Mon,ma,mes and ton ta tes. Could you please help me?

The exercise says "When the main verb is in the passé composé, it is followed by the passé composé or plus que parfait" so why, in the following example, is the passé composé followed by the present tense.

I am 68 years old and a habitually bad speller on computers. Does Kwizik actually believe that constantly repeating a particular question is somehow going to improve my spelling on computers

Ces fêtes ________ incroyables.

It seems to me both Imparfait and Passé Composé could be used here, for different meanings.

"Ces fêtes étaient incroyables."  Those parties [which happened regularly, a long time ago] were amazing.

"Ces fêtes ont été incroyables." Those parties [which were not long ago, and which happened only once (e.g. in a specific summer)] were amazing.
