The heading is wrong. It should be: Tutoyer 'ou' Vouvoyer?. 'ou' in place of 'or' because that is a french heading with English in the second line.

when would it be soit d'argent and when soit de l'argent

and why please

Could you not answer Oui j'y crois ??

Context and interpretation is not being considered in My answers... Why? 

I ask this because I would like to know if They want Direct Translations or do They want to Same Essence of what is being said?

in french how do you say they/them pronouns without it being pluralized? I know iel for they but i’m having trouble finding a singular them

Can you please confirm the pronunciation of LE PLUS when it comes in the middle in case of Superlatives - 

W/ VERBS

- Je travaille le plus dans ma famille. (ploo) ?

W/ NOUNS

- J'ai le plus d'amis. [I have the most friends.] (ploo) OR (plooS)?

- J'ai ramassé le plus de feuilles. (ploo) OR (plooS)?

And if it was Comparitive with Noun, then,

- J'ai ramassé plus de feuilles que toi.  (plooS)?

I found this link below, but this only gives the scenario of Superlatives with Verbs & Adjectives but doesn't give the scenario of Superlatives with Nouns.

I wasn't confused about this till I read the response to why is there the "de" between"c'est" and "perdre".  In your response you say if "adjective or past participle in-ed" comes after être, but there is no adjective or past participle after "c'est", so why the "de"?

Thank you for your contribution, Maarten !

- être + adjective or past participle in-ed + de + verb

- être + de + verb

Bit of clarification please:-

- Isn't 'I pass by the new coffee shop' better translated by 'passe par' ? The exercise on Passer  gives -Passer par / devant ...   (to pass by / in front of...)

- does not 'J'aime' mean 'I love' and wouldn't 'J'aime bien 'I like' be better in this instance? (the excercise on Aimer says 'Note that when using aimer bien, it actually lessens its meaning from 'to love' to 'to like' [someone] / [something].'

I’m confused about why the possessive of “Ils” in this lesson is “se“ rather than “ses“?
