“J’aimerais que nous travaillions sur la prononciation,”Are the tenses correct in “J’aimerais que nous travaillions sur la prononciation,”? The imparfait seems wrong to me. Shouldn’t it be present conditional (travaillerions) or future (travaillerons)?

Using the pronoun "y"

Hello All.

I was reviewing pronouns using this page:

https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/indirect-objects-2/

It mentions using the adverbial pronoun "y" and then gives an example:

Il y pense. He’s thinking about her.

I thought that "y" could only be used to reference an inanimate object, not a person.

Are there special cases? What am I missing here?

Thank You in advance.

Bob

Use of future tense... lorsqu'on visite un nouveau lieu.

I thought the future tense should be used after quand or lorsque. So, shouldn't this phrase be, lorsqu'on visitera un nouveau lieu.
