Is this also used if you want to use "before I'd do that" in a sense of "I'd never do that". I don't know if this makes sense, I mean like "I'd die before I'd do that". Or would that be a hypothetical clause?
Do either or both of these always imply one of either passing by without entering a place vs passing by and entering. Some of the examples seem to indicate the former whereas others (la pharmacie par exemple) seem to imply the latter.
thank you
The correct answer for the question: Il ________ repassé chez toi hier soir.
He passed by yours again yesterday evening.Is being given as "est". However there is no preposition before "chez toi". Is the "par" to be assumed ?

Hi, Ive just done the question 'What does Je lui parle mean? to which I answered I am speaking to him, and I am speaking to her (I ticked both boxes.) My answer was marked nearly right but my understanding is that lui can refer to both him or her. Can you explain why it was marked this way please.
My answer is milliers d'
but somehow its not correct. It should be mille.
deux mille euros
deux milliers d'euros
both are correct, right? How come my answer is right?
Hello! I still don’t get what this quote in the lesson means:
“Note that for regular -IR verbs, the je/tu/il/elle/on forms of le Passé Simple are exactly the same as for le Présent. The context will help you know which tense is intended in thoses cases.”
Is the point being made that “Je dormis” both carries the meaning “I slept” as well as “I sleep” or “I am sleeping?”
In the lesson:
Il faut une gomme pour effacer des erreurs.We need a rubber / eraser to erase mistakes.What is the difference between above and:
Il nous faut une gomme pour effacer des erreurs.
? Is it simply a matter of formality or is it incorrect?
thanks
