I have, I will, etc.In English when someone asks, "Have you finished your homework"? we say, "I have". When someone says to tell someone hello for me, we say, "I will". What are the French equivalents to these short responses? I know the meaning is implied in English but can you do the same in French?

Sorry again. :) Regarding the example, "Vous faites tous vos devoirs?", instead of "Are you all doing your homework?", I'd have thought the translation would be "Are you doing all your homework?". Could it not be? Thanks!

Another way to say - You need to have had your shower before noon."Il faut que tu aies pris ta douche avant midi." (You have to have had your shower before noon.You need to have had your shower before noon.) Would it also be correct to say the following: "Il faut que tu aies eu ta douche avant midi"?

In the last lesson, it said "du" meant "from." So how does "je fais du ski" make sense?

I didn’t think the lesson prepared for me the present opening question ...Where did all those ‘t’s come from? I didn’t understand the difference between the answers - well done to all thise below who did, but this was - and will probably remain - a mystery to me :(
