Cette lecture est tres vite pour moi. Pouvez-vous parlez plus lentement, s'il vous plait?

Why is this not:  Gabriel avait travaillé comme comptable pendant dix ans.

The hint indicates that he in no longer working as an accountant, so surely it should be past perfect tense.

1. Je trouve que tu joues bien.

2. Je te trouve jouer bien.

Hi

to say "we missed you" = tu nous as manqué (sort of saying : you were missed by us)

so why is it "Paul a manqué son train," = straight translation "Paul missed his train," and not "son train a manqué à Paul" or "son train Paul a manqué"? Thank you.

For the expression "There are plenty of fish in the sea" the translation for the exercise is  "Un de perdu, dix de retrouvés". Could you also use also use the expression "Le mer est plein des poissons".

The YouTube video is unavailable. I'm just reporting this in as an issue since I don't know if there is a report error function. Thanks!

From my understanding, french does not put two vowel together and will use "j'", "d'", "l'", etc. if there is a vowel as the first letter. I also know that "h" is silent and also uses "j'","d'","l'". etc. 

I would like to know why and if there other letters that follow this rule. Thank you very much in advance.
