Hi, Do you have a list of verbs that are followed by à and de? And is there a simple way to remember which is the right preposition to be used post which verb?

"un jus de fruits bien frais."  Would "jus de fruit" also be correct in the quoted phrase?   

Hello,

I have a question relating the position of the words.

1. There's an example with ne ... jamais rien = never ... anything : "Il n'a jamais rien fait" --> is this correct or should it be "Il n'a jamais fait rien" ?

2. Now with ne ... rien du tout = anything at all, I found this expression on deepL and I don't know if it's correct or how to position the words. For example, I want to say: "She didn't say anything at all". Should it be:

   a) Elle n'a rien dit du tout

   b) Elle n'a rien du tout dit

More examples would be very much appreciated.

Thank you.

Why is it "de jolies cartes romantiques " and not " des jolies cartes romantiques "?  It seems like it should be parallel with "des boites" and "des bijoux".  Thanks.

I've heard this as a song title, but all of the examples above are sentences with auxiliary verbs, so is this correct French?

Can 'les gosses' be used here instead of 'les enfants' for 'the kids' ?

"on aurait dit un savage" translates to it looked like a savage, but I'm unsure of the rule for that. Is there a lesson on this?
