I don't get why the tenses change from perfect to imperfect? it's the same sentence?

In an exercise - Pauline s'habille de plus en plus élégamment.

Why is the 2nd "s" not pronounced as a "z" - given that the word following starts with an é ?

I have been studying the rules and just did a quiz on this.

Couldn't loisir be used for hobby or is hobby more common (another English word adopted by the French!)?

The heading is wrong. It should be: Tutoyer 'ou' Vouvoyer?. 'ou' in place of 'or' because that is a french heading with English in the second line.

Why can’t i say ‘tout à fait!’ For ‘absolutely’ ?

Hi when I create a notebook I'm asked if I want it to be made public or not. Where can I find these public notebooks?

Thanks, Jeramy

In the following sentence why is him the word lui and not le?  I thought lui was usually used only with verbs that could be associated with à.  The example: “ “It’s necessary that I find him an original gift.”

according to another app I’m using the correct answer is: “ il faut que je lui trouve un cadeau original” and not “il faut que je le trouve un cadeau original”  I’m confused with this.  

Can you use 'tandis que' instead of 'pendant que'?
