Questions about how to write sums of money IN ENGLISH!

Question

Questions about how sums of money would be expressed in English are completely pointless.  They contribute nothing to learning French.  Don't be like Duolingo; don't waste peoples' time with idiotic time-wasting questions.  Everything else you do is wonderful.

Accepted Answer

Bonjour Ciaran,
Thank you for you honest comment! We work very hard to create content and questions that address our users’ needs. This lesson is one that has often been a pitfall for English speaking French learners and we highlight it purposely to prevent our users from the potential confusion that can come from not being aware of it. Mastering the differences between the way numbers are displayed in French compared to in English has an actual practical use, especially when you’re planning to live/work/travel to France. It also sounds like you might not have used the Notebook feature yet, to choose your own Studyplan of lessons. My colleague from our helpdesk has sent an email to you about that. Please check your inbox.
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !
