French language Q&A Forum

This is a technical issue.  Listening to the full text playback for this exercise, often when I press pause the playback continues, or continues then stops randomly, or continues with an overlap delay.  I have the same problem with all of the full text writing exercise playbacks.  Am I doing something wrong?

If you wanted to say "You are not going to drive me...", would you say "Tu ne me conduis pas..."?   

I think this is more a question about the use of lui, but there are some examples here that use it. Ils rient avec lui, pas de lui. They laugh with him, not at him. 

How do we know lui is HIM and not just him/her without any other context. Do I just take the translation for what it is, or am I missing something fundamental? I find this to be so confusing. Thank you.
