I really wish I could take a 10 - 15 question quiz on some of these lessons, like this one. I often feel like two questions is not enough to cement or really learn some of these.

"car je n'aurai pas à aller travailler."

I would have expected devoir to be used here instead of avoir. Could someone clarify? Maybe I'm not understanding the tenses clearly. Thanks!

Pronouncing the final -e

“Ma petite sœur est rigolote” the vocalisation above clearly emphasises the final e in both petite and rigolote, when at other times, with other speakers, I only hear the final consonant. Is this just a matter of individual accent, or should the final e be clearly pronounced as a general rule?

Pronunciation of Genre/s

Is the audio for “genre/s” ok? I’m not hearing it as that word. It’s the last sentence “qui est remplie d'objets en tout genre”.

Avant tout vs D'abord Why is 'Avant tout' used as the translation for 'First of all', and not 'D’abord' – which is not given even as an alternative. I understand that d’abord indicates a sequence – first before other items – while avant tout is more like above all – a priority or emphasis, but not necessarily sequentially first. So I would have thought d’abord was more appropriate here. Or is this a deliberate use of the term to show that the person really means 'above all'. A distinction that 'First of all' doesn't really imply in English.

Why do I hear a “t” sound between Quand -and- il

Question: Why do I hear a “t” sound between Quand -and- il in the first sentence, in this exercise, I hear “t-il”. It seems with the “d” at the end of Quand, I am expecting a “d-il” sound. - thank you, EV
