The Delf experience in the video is really not as they make it outI was really upset (so upset, I have to write this in English) by the March 7th sitting of the DELF B2, as were many of my collegues who expressed the same sentiment: The oral comprehension was so extremely difficult. It was a telephone interview, which sounded like it took place in a tin can. I have prepared very well for the DELF B2. I listed to France 1 everyday for 6 months. By far, the selected interview for this test was the most difficult and the WORST quality of an interview I ever heard. Furthermore, the speaker had a very low voice, and all his words were 'liasoned' together.
It seems to me that the want you to fail the B2. At B1, they are so happy that you have come that far with French and are so supportive. But at B2, they want to trick you and make it exceedingly difficult and set you up for failure. It was extremely stressful and not happy time as expressed in this video.
I wish there was someone to express this complaint to, especially if I fail.

I am really struggling to understand the difference between these as they are both used when there is a choice as What/Which. I have read the lessons on these over and over but still consistently getting answers wrong. I was wondering if someone could explain as simply as possible please!
Many thanks

Again, One of your examples under the heading -
la moitié de [quelque chose] = half -the- [something]
was “Il ne mange qu'une moitié du biscuit.”
Can you clarify, then, why response “Tu as bu une moitié de la bouteille.” was marked incorrect and the suggested correct response was “la moitié de” ?
ahah, I see that a lot of people are having some trouble understanding the difference, as well as i.
I went a bit more simple, here are the sentences I'm confused with:
j'ai encore écris lui, mon prof codagej'ai de la chance parce que il a [le répondu]/[répondu lui] il y a deux jourin the first sentence, I understand that I have to use indirect pronouns as I'm writing *to* [person]. However, this makes it kind of similar in the second sentence as he responded *to* it, but it can be easily confused with lui as I've already mentioned someone with the same type of subject? I'm just confused overall aaaa.
I'm trying to get to grips with noun complements as well as the content of this lesson. Both involve de and d' and maybe des (I am confused!) Can you suggest other lessons that could help with this thorny subject please.
