Why is Francaise docteur  capitalized, but astronome francaise is not?

In the song Jalousie by Angele, in saying the English question, "Who is that girl in the photo", why does she say,

"C'est qui cette fille sur la photo" rather than "Qui est cette fille sur la photo"?  

Is this Walloon French, since she is from Belgium?  Thank you very much.  

Wouldn't on y va also be translated as let's go?

What is the negative of this sentence

Elle a cinq crayons 

Thank you helping in previous question.

How to know the order of the words..?

Est ce que tu parles la francias?

Est ce que parlez vous la francias?

How to decide- personal pronoun to be used has to be before verb or after verb??

Thank you

There is a sentence " Ma mère nous a récompensés pour __nous être comportés______ correctement." in the tests  for this lesson.

Where do you place adverbs with the passive voice verb. The placement of "correctement" at the end could be justified because it is a "long" adverb. But it also does modify the verb "se comporter". Where would an adverb like "bien"  go?

Comment: This may be grammatically correct in French, but in English, if you say that two people are ‘kissing themselves’, that would literally mean that each of them is kissing their OWN bodies (or parts of), And of course, this would be bizarre. 

The quiz results marked me wrong but I had the correct answer. How do I notify someone?

How come the "dix" was pronounced like "di"? I thought the "x" was pronounced at the end.

Thank you!

Why was my answer marked wrong because I used tu instead of vous when there was no indicator either way.

Wouldn’t either  choice be correct in a quiz?

I realize that in speech there is always a reason for choosing tu versus vous.

Thank you
