Note: the penultimate sentence doesn’t correct. It skips over after you submit it.

This is a really comprehensive lesson. Cécile even provided a list of words beginning with "h" in the comments above but included only nouns and verbs. It would be great if you added a list of adjectives beginning with "h" so we can see which ones follow which rules for "tout" all in one place. 

This isn't really related to the lesson itself, but in the little quiz under the lesson, for "Je l'aime bien qu'il soit un peu paresseux." the answer was "I love him although he's a bit lazy." (which I answered correctly so no questions on "bien que") but isn't "aimer bien" is closer to "like" than "love" as taught in your lesson about this verb? 

I’ve looked at the forum responses and still don’t understand why ‘je suis dix minutes en retard’ was marked as incorrect. More clarification please.

I thought that "turc" referred to a Turkish man and that "turque" referred to a Turkish woman. The correct answer indicates that "turque" refers to a Turkish man. Please explain why my answer was marked as incorrect.

Salut!

The correct answer in this exercise was "Tous les gosses y vont, mais aucun ne prend le train."

Equally, could you just say "Tous les gosses y vont, mais personne ne prend le train." Does it have the same meaning and is it correct?

Also, I thought aucun(e) ne was reserved for things rather than people?

Might be worth a reminder that -er verbs drop the final s in the singular impératif... Tu donnes.. donne!.. otherwise a bit of a wild goose chase if you make that mistake!

What about when it is du in front of a thing? Is it still en or y?
