This rule's main aim is to make sure the pronunciation is always [toot] in the feminine. Indeed, in front of a vowel and mute 'h', the last 't' of tout is pronounced because of the liaison, hence no need for the extra 'e'.

Is this saying that the extra e is optional, or is this a rule?

Many thanks

Puis-je  écrire "Parmi ceux...." au lieu de "Entre ceux.." ? En anglais, si je me souviens bien, on dit "among" pour plus de deux personnes. Et encore, je ne parle pas toutes les deux langues comme ma langue maternelle.

The question was 'are we going out'.    Why is the answer on sort and not on va sort

Just wondering why convenir is conjugated with vous as 'vous convient'.  Shouldn't it be vous convenez?  Please clarify.  Merci!

Hi there - this topic is giving me the biggest trouble. Crafting questions!

Is there any advice or guidance or on how to approach this? I cannot seem to connect with this at all. Thanks!

What is the rule for using "au-dessous/dessus de" rather than "sous/sur"?

I've been told that you should use "dans" when there is a roof, and "sur" when there isn't. So "on the bus/plane" is "dans l'autobus/avion" and "in the fields" is "sur les champs". Is this a good general rule?

Are there different contexts where one can use "veut" instead of the "avoir envie de"?

For instance, why can't i say "je veut le chocolat"? When do i get to say "j'ai envie du chocolat"?
