Je ne comprends pas pourquoi on dit ton actrice mais on dit ta mère.

In English there is a formal difference between "old" and "antique". For a car to be "antique", it must be at least a certain number of years old. Similarly, "veteran" cars must also be at least a certain number of years old, which is less than the definition of "antique". Isn't there a formal distinction between "old" and "antique" and "veteran" in French?

Would de la confiture de framboise be a possibility rather than de la confiture à la framboise?

Thanks in advance

Two Kwiz questions linked to this lesson give the above construction for "go there" - can y aller be used instead? Is there a distinction?

She wants you to go there = Elle veut que tu ailles là-bas 

Do you want me to go there? = Veux-tu que j’aille là-bas ?

I actually got one question spot on and then others very close, missing a dash or full stop and scored 0! This is very discouraging. Surely that is incorrect? 

HI The game is to connect the letters, but there are no letters to connect. There is only a circle, but no letters.

"N'importe quoi" is a colloquial, it means nonsense or bs! Not the right or natural way of saying whatever. This is incorrect. The correct way to say is "Peu importe".

How do I access the accents for French writing within Quizik?

I can't seem to make the accents work when I'm using the site. 

i want to know why " geler"in le futur simple is  "gèlera", rather than "gellera"

In this text we have : une petite Margarita , une grande pizza Quatre Fromages, and une petite Hawaïenne.

On the internet I am seeing a mix of Pizza names with capitalisation and without capitalisation (in French).

Should they be capitalised, or are both capitalised and uncapitalised names acceptable ?

Thanks

Paul
