Doubt in Dont/QueBonjour Madame Cécile,
I am struggling with a problem related to relative pronouns. If given two sentences as-
"Prends mes crayons.Je n’en ai plus besoin.”
Now, how will these 2 sentences be combined using a relative pronoun?
Can the answer be as-
“Prends mes crayons que je n’en ai plus besoin.”
Or, would we use ‘dont’ as-
“Prends mes crayons dont je n’en ai plus besoin.”
Which one is correct and what is the reason behind it ?
Also Madame, will the pronoun en be omitted while combining the sentences or will it remain as it is. And why so ?
Aidez-moi, s’il vous plaît.
Merci d’avance.
I think the lesson title could be improved if this was added (+ noun). Just a suggestion, merci!
Why can't a valid answer be "George bought four or so books at the market?" In English, a few could possibly mean "four or so." "Few" is a vaguely definable quantity in English -- does "quelques" mean something more specific in French, or is this a matter of question/answer construction?

Does this sentence “Je vais voir avec Julie” means “I’m going to meet Julie?
Is this a Canadian French course? I want to be confident I'm learning French as used in France.
My french teacher only speaks in French. She was trying to explain the difference between "face à" and "en face de" but the nuance was lost on me. Can someone explain in English? Merci!
