de L'Inde ou d'Inde?

I have seen some tutorials using 'Je viens de L'Inde' while some tutorials use 'Je viens d'Inde' to say 'I am from India'.

I feel both are grammatically correct (In my limited knowledge).

Which phrase is should I use?

Un peu usageBonjour Aurélie Recently I was told that any adjective that comes after 'un peu' must have a masculine ending regardless of the nous it describes e.g. Ma maison est un peu froid. Is this correct ?

Why do you contract je ai to j'ai but leave tu as and not t'as ?It seems like tu never contracts with the following verb. Are there other words that end in vowels but never contract with the next word ?

Use of ‘femme’ for both woman and wife

« ma femme préfère… » would ´mon épouse´ ever be used. Femme as both woman and wife sounds a bit old fashioned while a man gets to be  ´homme and mari ‘

subjunctive for croireHello, If I want to ask "do you think that we will win?" do I use the subjunctive even though it's in the future? That is, do I say: "Crois-tu qu'on gagne?" or similarly "crois-tu que nous gagnions?" OR do I say "Crois-tu qu'on va gagner?"/ "Crois-tu que nous allons gagner?" Merci en avance, Katya

What is the difference between manquer and rater? If I wanted to use the examples above about a train or a concert, what would the difference be for the two verbs? Can I use both or is one wrong? If not, what is the change in meaning?

écouter à vs. écouter de?

Why is the sentence fragment "J'écoute du Beethoven" and not "J'écoute à Beethoven"? When would someone use 'écouter à' vs 'écouter de'?

When do you use j'ai instead of je suis?

If these both mean I am, when do you use each one?
