What does the "en" in this clause express? Thanks.
Is this an error? Or is "se maria" an actual phrase. I thought it should be "se marie".
I'm also wondering why it is not "s'est mariée". That's the phrase I would have used.
Can I review the entire text of what I wrote so I can compare it as a whole text with the corrected text please?
The phrase in English was "I will introduce her to Amelie" (sorry I don't have accents). The translation given is je lui presenterai Amelie which I take to mean "I will introduce Amelie to her". Should it not be "je la presenterai a Amelie"?
Hi, in “d'où l'on pouvait admirer la vallée du Rouvres en contrebas,” is the “l’” in “l’on” purely for euphonics (i.e. it carries no meaning)?
Pourriez-vous m'expliquer s'il vous plaît pourquoi on utilise "sa timidité extrême" mais "son extrême timidité".... pourquoi le genre de timidité change avec le lieu de "extrême"? merci
When would one use "le trafic" and when "la circulation"?
Just to confuse things some more, there are several possible alternative English translations in addition to the one given here:
Je fais le lit après que tu t'es levé.I'm making the bed after you've got [US: gotten] up.
The French can also be translated as:I'll make the bed after you get up.I'll make the bed after you've gotten up.I'll make the bed after you're up.

This link says that an Indirect Object Pronoun can also be introduced by the preposition pour (for). But I can find only examples with preposition ' à (to)' ...Can you please share a few examples of Indirect Object Pronouns with preposition pour; can't find them in this lesson and other Indirect Object related lessons.
