Is it possible to use à instead of 'en' when saying "Je suis à ville."?.....Thirza0

Why is it les for his pockets? I understand it has to be les for hands as is a body part,  but why not ses poches?

"As for le jour suivant (on the following day) and le jour précédent (on the previous day), they are used in a past context just like le lendemain and la veille, but always on their own."

And then you give the examples: "Il a été relâché le jour suivant son arrestation."; "Le jour précédant leur premier rendez-vous, ils étaient très nerveux.".

So, do they have to be used on their own, or not?

According to the lesson Vrai before noun means quite a.... where as Vrai after noun means true. So why are we using vraie here before cuisine when we want to say a true kitchen?

"I really need you to find out the reason why it's not working anymore,"

Regarding the above please explain why the imperfect tense is used for the verb trouver (trouviez), I would have thought that either the present tense (trouvez) ... "you find out"

or the future tense (trouverez) ... "you will find out"

would correctly translate from the English text? 

Thank you.

hello, could you please explain the reference to  point median in the l'écriture inclusive text? I'm sure it should be obvious but I'm not getting it! Merci.

Pourquoi "par an" au lieu de "par année" ?

I presume it’s the speaker, but the speaker sounds female. 

This lesson distinguishes between the use of "en" and "l'". It gives examples of both but fails to provide any information about which one is appropriate and when. One of the comments says that they are interchangeable - which makes no sense as the tests insist they are not?
