Si "to go ski" est "faire du ski", pourquoi "would go skiing" n'est pas "faisaient du ski"?

My Kwiz question was "How could you say "Gregory is going away for the holidays." ?

and the answers included pendant, durant and pour. Is "the holidays" considered to be a clearly defined start and end time?

In English, "I have nothing more to say to you" has a slightly different meaning to "I have nothing to say to you any more" - I guess because the second stresses you’re not going to speak again and the first that you’ve nothing left to say. Is there a way to make the distinction in French ?

If reflexive verbs always use the auxiliary verb 'etre', why is it 'Quand elle m'a embrassé' and not 'Quand elle m'est embrassé' 

Please could you explain why prochain is placed in front of 'concert', when it is normally placed after nouns?

Yet, "un vrai nom" can mean a person's real name, correct?

a specious explanation. Brushing of my hair!

The word clore jumped out at me as well. Very much enjoyed reading and listening to this exercise.
