French language Q&A Forum

Hello, I can’t find any lessons about “ce dont” on kwiziq though I’ve seen it being used by french people many times. So I look it up on lawless french and find a comparison between “ce dont” and “dont” (https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/indefinite-relative-pronouns-ce-dont-quoi/) and I still can’t tell the difference between the two. Please help. Thank you so much!

- i was told that it is always autour DE (by a french conversation teacher),  Is this something that is so commonly used incorrectly that it has become acceptable over time? (in one of your examples, and in others from other sites, it is autour DE LA lune, or autour DU monde.)

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.

What are the differences between translating "the end" by "à la fin" or "au fin" or "finalement"?

Favori and préféré are adjectives that can mostly be used interchangeably, meaning favorite. 

In what cases are they NOT interchangeable? When do you need to use one over the other?

Hi, I was doing a writing exercise translating "So that all was ready on time." The correct answer was "Pour que tout soit prêt à temps,"' and not "'Pour que tout soit prêt à l'heure." Why is it better to use à temps in this sentence?
