On this question, "Me encantan los quesos franceses y las tartas ________." the correct answer is marked as francesas. 

Isn't the french cheese masculine, "el queso francés"? So isn't the answer franceses?

Would it also be correct to say...."quién va a hacer el primer movimiento?"?

No seas tonto.   It feels like we are describing a temporary condition. Why is ser used?

‘The local police has captured the murderer.’

I’d say this should be ‘have captured’ in English,  ‘has’ sounds unnatural to me 

¡Anda, qué bien te han dejado en la peluquería!

Could this also be stated as? ...

¡Anda, qué bien te han hecho en la peluquería!

Or is that rude? I probably wouldn't have thought to use dejado.

Hello,

Can anyone please explain the use of ser in these 2 examples? Both are describing temporary states (I think.) They are from a video that has many sentences to translate..  This seems not to accord with the normal use of ser.

1. No sea tonto.  (I would tanslate this as "Don't act silly." We are not saying "You are a silly person."}
2. Era obvio que el conductor no había sido lo suficientemente cuidadoso.  (I don't think this is a passive construction. Shouln't this be "no había estado"?)

Notice how in Spanish we need toadd "y" between the tens and the units (cincuenta y cuatro). Three thousand six hundred and six.

In the above example from a kwizz I understand the use of the present participle but should the subjunctive conjugation of seguir and continuar not be used here? Thanks

¡Me gusta que nos muestre las dos formas de las frases, gracias! ;)
