Elles (les chauve-souris) ne volent que la nuitI look for a proposition like à or dans la nuit. Have you any general tips on why and where french does not need a preposition in cases like this?

Using grand-choose instead of beaucoupFirst, thanks for the great lessons. This is the most flexible and best online solution I've found, and I've been really impressed by this q n a forum. That said, when do you use grand-chose vs beaucoup?

This week's A2 writing challengeThis week's A2 writing challenge asked us to translate "I don't feel my legs anymore." The answer given was: "Je ne sens plus mes jambes." I was so proud to remember NOT to use the possessive pronoun in such cases and translated the sentence as: "...les jambes." Why am I wrong???? Thanks, -- Chris.

Weekend writing challenge: Level A2: Hi Viviane! How are you feeling today?Hi Kwizik Team, I read the related lesson on using the definite articles with body parts, so I'm wondering why one of the sentences in this writing challenge has the definite article, but the other sentence has the possessive adjective? e.g. : Correct answer: VIVIANE: Je ne sens plus mes jambes, Correct answer: j’ai des crampes dans les épaules, Why not write "les" for both "jambes" & "épaules" ? Cheryl

Examples 8 & 10 - why is "mieux" being used and not "meilleur"?Doesn't the use of the verb "etre" indicate a state of being rather than an action, and hence shouldnt meilleur be used instead of mieux?
