And yeah, French is a really hard language, to the point that even a lot of frenchies struggle to write it properly. | ||

The alternate sentence using "à chaque jour" definitely doesn't sound right. There is no reason to use "à" here. I'm not quite the rule kind but rather go with gut feeling so I have no idea if it's incorrect or simply awkward and why (yeah I know that doesn't help much lol, sorry about that) but "Combien de temps, chaque jour, passez-vous à faire des devoirs?" sounds much better. And it would sound even better with "vos devoirs" but that's quite advanced nitpicking. Also, "devoir" in singular form is better used when talking about a specific piece of work: "J'ai un devoir de mathématiques à rendre pour demain" "Il y a devoir surveillé d'anglais cet après-midi" But when conveying the meaning of general homework it's always in plural form: Mum: "Va faire tes devoirs" Son: "Je n'ai pas de devoirs à faire ce soir !" | ||

I also agree on vos devoirs but I didn't go ahead and make it too complicated either and yeah, I treated the whole devoir vs devoirs in the vocab (always refer homework as plural except when you mean one particular assignement/task) | ||

Combien de temps passez-vous à faire des devoirs chaque jour? Perfect. "Combien de temps passez-vous chaque jour à faire des devoirs" works too ( it is basicly the same ). you could also say Combien de temps, à chaque jour, passez-vous à faire des devoirs? O,O "à" + "chaque jour": Grammatically incorrect | ||

wrong manual is wrong then :S it is because they're both time preposition? redundancy or something? | ||

It just sounds wrong for French people from France. "à" isn't needed with "chaque jour". However it might be used by Quebec people. But French is kinda weird because for example "à + chaque fois" is used everyday ( although purists seem to not like it ) and i don't know what is the grammatical difference between "fois" et "jour". It seems that: "à + chaque" is just always wrong except for the old proverb ( where "à" begins the sentence ) however even the average French guy can tell you that "Combien de temps à chaque jour passez vous à faire vos devoirs ?" is incorrect whereas sentences with "à chaque fois" are often used. French grammar is ... >.< | ||

I'm positive I've heard the Quebecois at my school use it, which is where I've assimilated most of my French. | ||
