À eux -vs- aux euxBonjour, I was surprised to see "Je pense à eux." in this lesson. Should it not be "aux eux" ? The other day I was chatting online with a French native, and when I wrote "dit bonjour à eux" he corrected me, saying to use "aux". Merci !

Cela étant dit = That being said?One of the test questions was to translate "That being said" to French. Is "Cela étant dit" a correct translation? It was not accepted as such, but some web searching shows that at least other people think that one is correct in addition the official answer "cela dit".

de L'Inde ou d'Inde?

I have seen some tutorials using 'Je viens de L'Inde' while some tutorials use 'Je viens d'Inde' to say 'I am from India'.

I feel both are grammatically correct (In my limited knowledge).

Which phrase is should I use?

Un peu usageBonjour Aurélie Recently I was told that any adjective that comes after 'un peu' must have a masculine ending regardless of the nous it describes e.g. Ma maison est un peu froid. Is this correct ?
