French language Q&A Forum

I gave the answer "ne soit" but the correct answer is "n'y ait". Also in the examples there are egs of both avoir and être in the subjunctive but I don't understand what is governing the choice. Also what does the "y" signify in the answer?

The sentence, "Pourtant, elle le méritait vraiment", refers to something in the previous sentence, which is "Surya n’a jamais gagné de médaille d'or aux Jeux Olympiques, ce qui est vraiment dommage."  The 'le' is used instead of 'la' because it refers to gaining the gold medal, a masculine reference, as opposed to "la médaille d'or", a feminine reference.  Is that the correct interpretation as to why 'le' is used ?

What are the grammatical terms (names) and usage for DES = DE + LES, on one hand, and DES as a partitif and DES as a normal plural article on the other hand?

Pourquoi est-ce que le pronoun en haut masculine, je sais qu'IL adore?

I found one lesson in “Lawless French” that used blanc and banc as an example of “c” being silent due to the “an” being a nasal vowel. Other individual exceptions were stomach, porc and tabac.  So as a rule is the “c” silent when it follows a nasal vowel? Is there any other rule that I can use to cull the list of words that need to be memorized?

I've checked a couple of dictionaries, and I think oxide is not a french word, and it should be oxyde.

I remember a lesson (https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/aller-lesson/) saying that "aller" always has to have a destination indicated. (Hence allons-y! rather than allons!, etc.) Is "avec toi" enough to satisfy that rule?

In the question...

Comment ________ tes vacances ?How are your holidays going?... I wrote "vont" instead of "se passent". Why is that unacceptable, given that you can say "Comment allez-vous?"? Can you only use "aller" with people to mean "go" in this sense?

In a test I was asked to write: Patrick feels bad in this moment. I wrote Patrick se sens mal en ce moment. I was wrong because the answer was Patrick va mal... But is se sens not also correct?

I want to learn how to read french and speak fuently
