Are there really no alternatives here for excité? I went for ravi - does this not work this context?

Aussi, comment on traduit le mot "to work" dans cette dernière phrase? Marcher marcherait-il?...

Merci en avance!

Pour "How I wished things were different" les réponses étaient "Comme j'aurais aimé que les choses soient différentes !" et "Qu'est-ce que j'aurais aimé qu'il en soit autrement !"   Je ne comprends pas qu'est-ce que dans ce contexte.  Pouvez-vous me donner d'autres exemples?   Merci.

Why is this incorrect?  Il est aussi riche qu'ils

I thought name days were always masculine. Why not here?

Something strange is going on today - it’s not working properly 

how will we conjugate  " Elle a des stylo "

Why is it "J'ai du mal à (verb)", instead of "J'ai du mal a (verb)"? 

I only know we use it for locations, such as "Je suis à Paris" 

Two questions: 1) Why Elle aime écouter DE la musique, but J’adore regarder la télé (no de)? My French textbook, Les verbes et leurs prépositions, does not seem to make this distinction, but does not give an identical example. I also found a source that states that  Écouter la télé and Regarder la télé can be used interchangeably, suggesting the verb isn’t the issue, but to me the nouns are similarly indefinite. 2) In the negative, would it be Elle n’aime pas écouter de musique? Thanks in advance.

Does the use of this phrase (When something has happened, something else will) automatically make the "something else" far enough in the future to use futur simple rather than present tense ? Certainly some of the examples here would likely be fairly soon in the future, but they all use futur simple !

I just took the test on the Plus-que-parfait, "Une Envie de Changement". The fill in the blank was: "...on s'etait arretees dans un cafe..." (Sorry, the accents are unavailable here in the Q&A Forum.)

My answer matched the correct answer,but was marked nearly correct. I would like to know why that is?
