Underground galleries is translated as galleries souterraines 

- a check of the french spelling shows only one 'l' in galerie.

In the final sentence why is dépeignait not given as an alternative verb. It seems more precise than représentait.

Is there a list someplace for French verbs that are always followed by à?

Could "de" be used here instead of "en" ?  Any thoughts?

Hi, why is “la plus grande partie” feminine? It seems to be “attached to” the male “siècle” more than to the female “devise”. 

hello madam/sir,

I have a question why here they used 'des' instead of 'de'? As we use des for plural, but here nothing is plural.

Why is 'Ben will sit' translated as 'restera assi' rather than 's'assiera' ?
