Petit synonyms

At the lawlessfrench.com website, the webpage "Petit Synonyms" lists many intriguing alternatives to the term "petit". One two-word synonym I ran across & made note of when I saw it at one of the Writing Exercises at Progress with Lawless French, is 'tout petit' for petit.

Finding the correct vocabulary

Suggestions please, for the best way to find the vocabulary given at the start of each writing exercise and dictée. I use the WordReference app and the unabridged Collins Robert dictionary, but frequently find that phrases in particular are difficult or impossible to find, which makes the vocab list unhelpful. Thanks.

Are these sentences correct?Hello, I believe I'm over thinking and I'm not sure if the following sentences are correct in terms of word usage. 1. Ce lieu est le foyer de la plus ancienne colonie (not sure if I'm using le foyer correctly) 2. Un vaste terrain, se compose d'une population petite (should it be terrain qui se compose?) 3. C'est une terre d'histoire
