Why wouldn’t you use “ ils balaieront/balayeront le sol avant nous venions “  in lieu of “avant nous ne venions “ ? I’m confused about the “ne” negation. What’s its purpose?

Can the word taux be used instead of tarif? Is there a difference between the two?

why are we using des with six ( chacun des six chateaux)  as six is the defined number

"Nous avons mangé en une heure" does not have a correct answer.  "We ate in an hour" and "We ate in an hour´s time" are both incorrect.  An appropriate answer would be "We ate for an hour."  (American English)

In english, if someone is upset, or if something's going on, i might ask "what is it?". I'm not exaclty asking the meaning of something but im wondering about a situation if that makes sense.

So would the french translation in that scenario be "c'est quoi/qu'est-ce que c'est"? Or does that only refer to a noun. 

I hope I'm making sense.

I want a lesson in using the above topics. How do I find the lesson for a specific problem AND... can I make a lesson if there isn't one already?

Thanx timothy

In the test question: "Suzanne aime les vêtements [INSERT]", the correct answer is "orange". My question is: wouldn't the color orange agree with the noun ("les vêtements") which is plural? Why is the correct answer "orange" and not, as one might assume, "oranges"?

I just have one suggestion to make the seek bar (at the top) movable at the vocal section so that we can listen to how to pronounce and complete the sentence in the native way. Right now it is in one go.. if i have to listen , how to say the second last line I have to listen from the very beginning till the second last sentence.
Hope someone fix this.
I am learning french from you guys... Its Fabulous. Thanks for the material

What does the tip mean, "Masculin always wins in french?"  I don't understand this.  Kindly elaborate.  Thanks!

Unsure of the correct translation of D Day I turned to wordreference. They start with Le Jour J. Why is that incorrect?
