I was wondering about this: There is a song "je le vous dirai" - it seems to go against the rules about the order as outlined above. Is there a reason for this? Does it mean something different? Would this just be chalked up to creative freedom to make something sound better because it's a song?

Thanks!

Gender agreementWhen you say 'its [the participle's] gender agreement will depend on whether the group contains men or women', surely you mean 'contains menor not'.

In and ToI admit to being totally confused about the rules for In/To/From for Cities/ Regions/States/Countries/Continents. I am creating an Excel spreadsheet for myself to clarify the rules and I am going through the several Kwiziq lessons which explain the rules. I am confused because the lessons use In and To interchangeably. Are In and To always the same word in French for each combination of gender, first letter (vowel or consonant) and number (singular or plural)?

How is the gender relevant? The lesson talks about feminine adjectives, but these adjectives can also be masculine, like bon and gentil. Why does it talk about them as feminine?

Confusion about using en to replace people

The lesson says you can't use the pronoun "en" to replace people. But then the first video gives multiple examples of doing just that. For example:

Vous connaissez des francais? Oui, nous en connaissons.

Cette homme aime une actrice? Oui, il en aime une.

Are these examples not correct? Or are they okay because it's not "de" + person? In that case, can you use "en" to replace people as long as "de" doesn't come before the people?
