If : Je l'y retrouverai plus tard.

is this : I'll meet him/her there later.

should be : Je l'y lui donnerai plus tard ?

or : Je le lui donnerai là plus tard

Please explain why one is correct and the other is not.

I put in "Le lapin EST disparu" and I was marked as wrong. "A paru" was given as the only correct answer.

We don’t know if ‘theirs’ applies to a single car they own or if they both own a car (assuming just two people), because we don’t know the context. So, I’d have thought that ‘les leurs’ is as legitimate an answer as ‘la leur’.

Why isn't "je lui ai fabriqué un album photo" not "j'ai fabriqué pour lui un album photo"?  The grammar section on lui v le focuses exclusively on verbs followed by à such as plaire and téléphoner. 

Google Translate says "I made an album for him" = "J'ai fait un album pour lui" (but weirdly, "I made a photo album for him" = "Je lui ai fait un album photo").

Bonjour

Est-ce que je pourrais écrire

1)je m'assieds 'au coin' au lieu de 'dans le coin'

2)prendre une bière 'du frigo' a la place de 'dans le frigo'

Merci encore 

I thought that the inclusion of ni … ni in this answer meant ‘neither Sam nor Paul’ not just ‘Sam and Paul’. Am I mistaken?

I would appreciate a lesson on the verbs used when expressing the desire to do something or looking forward to doing something. 

Also, a lesson on the expressions used to mean "picking someone up" would be appreciated. 

Merci. 

The title holds the right answer. If I was speaking to a native French speaker and spoke this wrong answer - Si tu vas ou pas, ça ne change rien - would the French speaker understand but think to him/herself “tsk tsk such poor grammar”, or would my selection be incomprehensible? Actually, I have a similar question - two birds, one stone - regarding the use of ‘passé simple’ as opposed to ‘passé composé’: is there a simple rule which tells one which is the appropriate choice when?

When I click on the text "et installent projecteurs et caméras", the translation you provide is "and install projectors and videocameras". There are several ways to translate "projecteur" into English: it can also mean floodlight, spotlight and searchlight, besides the obvious translation "projector". 

They weren't entertaining Marshall Jodl by showing him movies. And even if they were, why would they need more than one projector?  Given the context, a much more likely translation of "projecteurs" is "floodlights". 

In the 90s, several rap groups released songs that included the repeated refrain "Whoop/Whoot there it is!"  This would often be played during sporting events, especially basketball, as a way to celebrate scoring a goal. Is the French "ça y est" similarly celebratory?  Is it ever associated with scoring a goal at a sporting event?
