I can't find either of these verbs in this form in any source, yet they are given as options for 'rewatch'. Although mater (already listed as 'very familiar' in Larousse and as 'argot' by the Academie-Française) and regarder are listed, neither shows up anywhere in 're' form ? Is this just slang - adding re- to any base verb as needed ?
Can you explain their origin and why they would be acceptable here ?
je m'appele rafael , je viens de Rio de Janeiro.
Just not sure how this switches/changes from a question to a statement.
Why does the place of "magnifique" varies in the sentences below though it's neither an adjective that qualifies a proper noun nor a numerical adjective?
J'ai vu des endroits magnifiques.
Il a mangé de magnifiques gâteaux.
In the Charles Aznavour song it's "On a tort de penser, je sais bien, aux lendemains". I'm confused by the lendemains as it is in the present tense and referring to the future. Why that word? Is this how one would say "tomorrows" in a poetic sense, referring to the future in a boader sense vs. just "tomorrow" as in the day after tomorrow. Could you replace lendemains with something else and still have it make sense?
