[Course Forum] Complete Duolingo French Vocabulary

Community-Created Courses French
1

I’m taking this Complete Duolingo French Vocabulary course, and I’ve found a mistake in the first level, where “un” is not accepted as a translation of “a, one” when there is nothing to indicate that it’s supposed to be the feminine “une”. Either the feminine attribute needs to be visible when translating or “un” needs to be accepted. Unfortunately, though, the course creator seems to no longer be around (_deleted_150827_1650_04) and I don’t know if anyone’s maintaining this course. But if someone here is, please fix this.

Also, will someone please do something about le poulet and la poule. There is nothing to tell you which they want so it’s a complete guess.

There is a similar problem with orange (fruit and colour) as one requires an article and the other does not. Again, no clue as to which they want.

I am wondering if this is based on the current tree? I found another and after research it seems that it was based on an old tree and is now outdated. I am new to both duolingo and memrise and am trying to do my best to succeed
