I looked up rewarding on Google translate and it was enrichissant?????

What is “dès” in “dès l’âge de 3 ans?” Should it be “des?” I have never seen it with the accent.

why can you say:le lait,if milk isnt countable

Can you simply move an adjective before a noun and then use 'de'? Or does using 'de' before the adjective only occur when using an adjective that actually goes before the noun?

i.e. Can we say "the white houses" either way? des maisons blanches or de blanches maisons

 Imaginez que je suis sur le parking et  j'essaye de démarrer ma voiture mais quelqu'un vient et me pose une question: "ça votre voiture?

Moi, je dis, “à votre avis” ? Donc, ici, à votre avis, ça veut dire, “Qu’est-ce que vous pensez”. En anglais on dit, “What else do you think?” ç'est ça?

FYI: I know the meaning of " À votre avis "but that meaning doesn't fit well in the upper scenario.

Merci!

In a recent French reading practice Port Grimaud is described as “ un ancien village typique”. The side-by side translation describes it as “a typical old village”. The lesson on the use of ancien tells us that when used before a noun it means former therefore why is it translated as old in this context?

If one wants to say "a big storm" should it be "une grosse tempête," "une grande tempête" or is either one acceptable?

can I use  "on" instead of  for passive sentences 
for example
on a donné de l'argent  ( money was given to us)
I wish your helps

Salut! Why is it not “je jouais avec Elsa pendant quelques heures..” as it is happening continuously over a period of time? Why is it passé composé in this context? 

Nous les avons préparés nous-mêmes

If préparer is a regular verb why do we use it with 's' in past tense?

Thank you.
