In the last answer there seems to be a partly misplaced hint. The sentence is "ont eu l'opportunité de regarder la télé en couleur pour la première fois" as a translation for "were able to watch in colour for the first time" but the hint is as follows:
- "got" = environ 1 500 foyers / - Spell out the number
I’m wondering if at one time the English sentence was "got the opportunity to watch" etc?
Also is it normal that a question about a writing exercise appears in "Q and A Forum" and not the thread itself?
