Using "depuis" with the correct tense."Suzanne hasn't seen him since 2013.'' -- This sentence does not make entirely clear whether Suzanne is seeing him now or not. In the first case it ought to be "Suzanne ne l'a pas vue depuis 2013", whereas in the latter it would be "Suzanne ne le voit pas depuis 2013", right? -- Chris.
