Simple suggestion

May I suggest that it would be useful to include this link with the list of related grammar and vocab. It explains how Quebec is treated as a country rather than a province, ie. "au Quebec" rather than "dans le Quebec."


En/Dans = in/to + regions/states/counties (French Prepositions)

Bonjour N. Hilary,

Thank you for your suggestion! This point also appears in the link that is shown in the exercise as well: Using en with feminine countries and au(x) with masculine countries to say in or to (prepositions)

"Note that Le Québec behaves like a country, even though it's a province"

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
