I think since 1990 and the contentious spelling reforms, there are now two acceptable ways to spell “onion” in French. I think the Academy even prefers “ognon” to be used over “oignon”. In the same way that you now allow “s’il vous plait” without the circumflex as well as “s’il vous plaît”, maybe you should add the new spelling of onion as an acceptable option?
And of course the poor old “domestique”. Don’t forget them! They make up an important part of the “coureur cyclistes” in the Tour and do lots of the tough work for their more glamorous team-mates but don’t get any of the glory. Thanks for the list.

Why is tu t-appelles Gary incorrect please ? 🤔
Please Kwiziq do not be like Duolingo and be inflexible with the words allowed/considered correct. Faire de la soupe et préparer de la soupe are synonymous and both should be correct.
"La fois dernière" = Noun
"La dernière fois" = Adverb & noun
I got a question wrong, looked at this lesson again and got confused by the whole "followed by a clause" thing (tricky to remember) and I thought that maybe this would be a easier way for me to remember it but I don't want to be lead down the wrong track.
Why does the verb 'détester' not require the ne explétif in this sentence: Les filles détestent que vous les embêtiez.
