les chiffres

Il me semble un peu injuste de ne pas offrir les chiffres écrits en mots comme option.

Possible to add 'autrement' as correct ?

Sinon seems to be the only word accepted for 'otherwise' (as conjunction meaning 'or else') in this exercise. Autrement gets the strikethrough, although Céline gave it the green light in a response previously.

is that true?
can we say that
Est-ce que vous connaissez Pierre? Oui, il est bon etudiant

normally nouns need "articles". but "il" can use without an article for giving an opinion about something mentioned.As you can see There is a noun in the sentence.I am curious about whether it is correct or not?

Passe Simplé is like...?

Is the Passe Simplé more like Passé Composé in meaning, or more like Imparfait? Or is this comparison just not a useful way to think about it?

break it down

could someone explain for me like broken down what is the source of this so my brain can understand lol like ok im sorry this is hard to explain but for example "je" = i, "m'" = iop, "to me", "apelle"= je form of s'apeller. so like, what does each thing, "il," "y," and "a" mean? i think il is 3rd person singular so it works as "it?" and idk about the y and the "a" is 3rd person singular of avoir, "has"?

various words used in different contexts

I think I may need a bigger dictionary! I am struggling to find the appropriate word. For example:

Le sol versus le plancher

imparable versus imbattable versus incomparable versus inégalable

évident versus manifeste.

Also the suggested answer "je vais faire une machine" seems to translate as "I'm going to make a machine"

Help !!
