Why is "La carte vous donne aussi" correct and not "vous donnez"?
In the last sentence, why is the verb form used, nous ne serons pas pris, instead of, nous ne prendrons pas. I'm not sure what this verb tense is.
Would it be acceptable to say « une question très dure » instead of « très difficile »? If not, what is the difference between dure and difficile?
What is customary for writing out numbers? Is it common to write "6" ans but not 8h30?
I am not sure if this is perhaps different with American English but as someone from the UK this sounds like Anne and Antoine are in the process of going somewhere to walk their dog e.g. in their car driving to a forest. It does not imply that they are in the process of actually walking their dog. I agree that there is a subtlety specifically with the question which is that the phrase includes "with their dog" but the "are going for" implies that they are not actually yet walking their dog but intend to go for a walk with their dog. For instance if I were to say "I am going shopping to buy some food" it means that I am not actually in the process of doing the shopping. Can you please clarify if "se promènent" is the actual current act of doing something or describing the intention to do the act?

J'ai trois soeurs. Does this change to Je n'ai pas trois soeurs or je n'ai pas de soeurs. If the latter, then do all numbers change to de??

à la place de
la seule personne à sourire le jour de la rentrée !
si attendu
qui me séparent de mon retour au bureau
merci !
I'm a bit confused by the meaning of this sentence (the temporality). If it refers to a one time thing (not a habit) then is it referring to future actions ? i.e. is it an equivalent of "I will make the bed once you have gotten up ?" Or does it mean that I am right now doing the bed but I have started some time in the past after you have already gotten out of bed ?
