The English text says "I crossed the Garonne river...", but the French text uses "nous" throughout. Screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/VIvVD4V
Hi. I understand that one could say "Je donne les requins à Anne" (i.e. "I am giving the sharks to Anne...imagine that Anne is a marine biologist) or "Je les donne à Anne" (i.e. I am giving them to Anne) or Je les lui donne" (i.e. I am giving them to her). However, how would one say "I am giving Anne to the sharks" (imagine that Anne has upset the local mafia) using a double pronoun (i.e. "I am giving her to them"? Presumably, one cannot say "Je lui les donne" (because it would violate the rules on the order of pronouns)? What about "Je y lui donne"? Any help gratefully received.
I used avoir + monte because in the notes it says this means - to go up, but the answer uses etre. Please can someone help me with this? Many thanks, as always!

Bonjour, je pense qu'il y a une faute dans le texte en dessus. "Je ne me lasse pas..." Il y a la lettre "i" qui manque dans le verbe, n'est-ce pas?

" Ayant passé une très bonne journée ..." Is this the past form of 'le gérondif'? Oops! Having just posed the question, I think I found the answer in the link in the lesson. So, would it be correct if I said, "Ayant juste posé cette question, j'ai trouvé la réponse." ?
It says here that we don’t use en for de + people, but we use stress pronouns. I know when to use EN, but sometimes I struggle to decide whether to use stress pronouns or COI, because they are both for people, and COI is for indirect objects, so basically it can be used for verbs with DE as well? I know few examples where we always use COI, like parle de, penser.. but, other than that I am never sure.Thanks
