| I am clueless to this quiz. Can someone please help. I've used google to try a French to English translation, but still am having trouble putting this together. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

| LilLuneLass tells you that she has a notepad on the table nearby with all the information you need for the quiz.
Looking over it, you have two options;
1- Actually study the information. 2- Write it all down on a pad in real life.
While both are tedious, I'd go with option 2, as you are sure you will have all the answers right. However, option one teaches you a bit of basic French, which is pretty dang cool, especially if you're a language buff.

| Thank you, Rose...but yes i kept another window open with the notes written on the pad. But...i have no idea what she is saying in French before or after the "blank" required answer. Any other suggestions would be great. Still confused

| All the questions will look like this-
Je Suis, (I am) -your answer- alors je suis numero, (so I am number) -your answer- en le queue (In the line)
You need to fill in the number or ordinal number that fits in the blank.
For example, if she says "Je suis ____, alors je suis numero dix dans le queue"
That translates into "I am ___, so I am number ten in the line."
The correct answer here would be 10th, which is dixieme in French.
The completed statement: In French, it would read "Je suis dixieme, alors je suis numero dix dans le queue." In English, it would read "I am 10th, so I am number ten in the line."
Now, the questions can go the other way. She could say "Je suis dixieme, alors je suis numero ____ dans le queue."
The answer here would be 10, or Dix.
Hope this helps you out!

| To help with the numbers a bit, when it says "Je suis____, alors je suis numero____ dans le queue." The first blank will always be a number (un, deux, trois, etc.) with -ieme on the end.
-Unieme -Deuxieme -Troisieme -Quatrieme -Cinquieme -Sixieme -Septieme -Huitieme -Neufieme -Dixieme
The second blank is a plain number, corrosrponing to the ____-ieme before it. So, if it says "Je suis huitieme, alors je suis number____ dans le queue." You will know that the blank is 'Huit', because that's what corrosponds to the ____-ieme before.
I hope this explained it better than that note pad on the table. ^^
