M’accompagner vs venir avec moi

Bonjour. I am a bit confused as to why Marie devait m’accompagner is ok but “Aimerais-tu m’accompagner ?” is not. Is it just that one wouldn’t say that in spoken French or just plain wrong. Thanks

Bonjour John,

The English sentence is: "Would you like to come with me?" ; hence, "venir avec moi" instead of "m'accompagner" (= to accompany me) is correct.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
