When would you use this expression (s`en aller) instead of the verb partir?  Je m`en vais or Je pars.

For future reference thoug... is this how I should ask if I  were in a deli for instance. Instead of saying "vous" I use "on" ..thus avoiding the   interpretation of "do YOU have" and correctly directing the question "do they (the cafe/deli) have?"... Seems a trivial point but I am  curious.

Does soi-mêmes with an 's' also exist? Can you give some examples? How does it differ from soi-même without 's'?

- Dans ce cas, on est soi-même responsable. [one is responsible oneself.]

- Dans ce cas, on est soi-mêmes responsable. [we are ourselves responsible.] Is it correct to write it with an "s" (similar to vous-même(s) or nous-mêmes for plural meanings)?

Just to ask why it is "de conseils" , not "des conseils" ?

Is it because it is a continuation of "plein de" ?

I believe plein de is invariable, i.e. would never use des.

e.g. "plein de trucs" , "plein de choses"

Thanks
