I listened to the video for this construction (the first video), and it sounds to me like the speaker uses liaison for every person except the 2nd person singular (tu serais aller). Do you know what rule he is following, if there is one? I have to admit, it sounds better to NOT use liaison in that particular case.

According to Larousse, Collins and Academie-françiase, « serre-tête » is invariable. Word Reference and Robert list «serre-têtes», but it is not the 'official version' apparently.

SERRE-TÊTE. n. m.■  Ruban ou coiffe dont on se serre la tête. Des serre-tête.

When is it appropriate to use "Plus que parfait" in a conversation?

"Ce que j'aime le plus au mois de juin, c'est me la couler douce"   - is "la" a substitution for la vie here?

Bonjour, J'ai a entendu "cinquantaine", pas "cinquante". Ai-je raison ? - Allison

Hello,

Can you help me understand the use of "en" and "y" as replacement pronouns in the sentence "J'en profiterai pour y aller avec lui"? I understand the general rules as explained in the lessons, but in this case I don't understand why they are both being applied. Wouldn't you just use "y" here to replace "la banque" ? Why are both "en" and "y" used? 

Thank you.
