The taxi driver asks about where he will bring her next and the correct answer used emmener, but I understood that emmener is to stay there with that emmener was to stay there with her whereas amener means to take her and leave her off. Am I wrong?

J'adore ça vs. J'ladore. I still don't understand the difference.

Are there any more examples you could give us? I used the direct object le with the apostrophe and it was marked wrong. How can we tell what word should be accented? Is ça always correct as opposed to le, la? In other words, are there certain times when the direct object must be before the verb or certain times when it has to be after the verb? Thank you.
