French language Q&A Forum

It would be useful to have a quiz in order to practise all the places and buildings in a town. This would help us to consolidate what is actually quite a long list, but very useful vocabulary when one is visiting France.

I can follow that most of the text is in the (futur d'anticipation). 

However, I am wondering why the text switched to using  the infinitive (entendre), in the last sentence? and why not use the Gerondif -en entendant. like at the beginning of the fourth sentence. 

I can’t find anything in this lesson or links about third person plural verbs. It would be useful to have examples of this as well as the situation of il/ elle + inversion for verbs ending -ter (which is mentioned in a question below). Am I right in thinking the inverted forms are eg achètent-ils and achète-t-il?

so you really just add an -e to the end of a adjective to make it feminine? is there any exceptions?

In 'nous nous étions fait piquer' why does the 'fait' not need to agree with the subject?

Is "mettre les affaires dans" not an acceptable translation of "to pack"?

Merci!

Les jambes, elles, étaient vêtues de collants de danseuse, blancs scintillants, que chaussaient de délicats talons hauts, noirs et fins. 

...are the high heels the subject and chaussaient the verb and they're inverted?  And the "que" that precedes them is referring back to "les jambes?"

Je ne comprends pas comment la phrase, 'c'est la manière dont les Français cuisent leur viande', soit correcte.

Je pensais que 'dont' s'utilisait pour exprimer les propositions anglaises, 'about, of, etc'. Par exemple,  dans la phrase 'la fille dont vous m'avez parlée hier'. Dans cet exemple je comprends l'usage parce que ça signifie la fille 'about whom' you spoke yesterday.

Mais dans le cas de, 'c'est la manière dont les Français cuisent leur viande', je ne vois pas le sens de 'about whom ni of', effectivement je ne vois aucune proposition après le verb 'cuisent', et c'est pour ça que je suis confus.
