in the example "Je suis assis entre Léa et Tim" why did we say je suis assis and not je m'assois ? are they both right or do they mean different things ? thank you in advance !

From this page and the link to the sister site below, it doesn't feel like there is a pattern to look for.

Reposting the link here so people don't have to scroll to comments made 2 years ago asking the same question...

Can you please update this article or clarify how to actually tell when to use what? 

Hi,

I read from a text book that I use (Inspire B1) and it says to conjugate Je/Tu/Il/Elle/On/Ils/Elles we do as what is described in this lesson.

However, for "Nous" and "Vous", the general rule is that we take the "Présent" form of "Vous", remove the "ez" ending and replace it with "ions" and "iez". I check with verbs such as "Prendre" and "Mouvoir" and it is correct.

Can anyone verify this ?  

What is the difference between "pendant" and "durant"? They both mean "during". Can you use either one in a sentence?

Hello,

The sentences:-

        Mes amis et moi, ON VA au cinema/ Mes amis et moi, NOUS ALLONS au cinema.

     Is it wrong to use 'nous allons' in the second sentence?

Salut, i am confused as to why homework translated as devoir instead of devoirs Is it because homework is treated as uncountable and/or plural in French? I assume it's a one, countable, homework thats why I didn't think of it being devoirs.

Merci beaucoup pour votre réponse !
