hi, 

I was wondering if in your example for cette aventure etait amusante why are you using cette? The rules state that if a noun starting with a vowel for masculine nouns you use cet. Or is it because aventure is a feminine noun?

thank you

What is the negative of this sentence

Elle a cinq crayons 

I was in the town hall in "Le Broc" yesterday, and the sign said "La mairie de Le Broc". Are you sure you've got this rule right? Following this train it would be "Elle va a Le Broc", not "Elle va au Broc". However I did notice that there were somes signs in the town saying e.g. "Carroserie xx du Broc", so it seems like there's some ambiguity here. I would assume the town hall would be correct?

Je suis jalouse des nouvelles bottes que tu as achetees.    Why is it des nouvelles  bottes and not de nouvelles bottes since nouvelles an adjective is in front of a noun

Why does aimer mean love instead of like in this sentence:

In one of the quiz questions, we are asked to negate "vous vous êtes réveillé".   But isn't that a mistake? Shouldn't it be "vous vous êtes réveillés"? And therefore the negation would be "vous ne vous êtes pas réveillés"?

…is not an acceptable alternative to ‘c’est n’importe quoi’ if you don’t know in advance what the idea behind this question is?

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.  

the answer "Non, vraiment, ça ne me plaît pas du tout !"

should it not be "Non, vraiment, ça ne me plais pas du tout !"
