I see no difference between "he only ate sweets" and "he ate sweets only". I have only encountered " que" after the past participle before the object

À rire or de rire

Bonjour à tous, je m'appelle minhaz.

I have started learning french which makes me a basic beginner in this language.

I have a question related to a sentence which is "it is good to laugh sometimes".

In french it is written as "C'est bon de rire parfois".

As I know that "to" is said as "à" in French.

My question is why it is not written as

C'est bon à rire parfois

Bonjour,

For states which preposition do we use? For example to say I live in Michigan would it be:

J'habite à Michigan ou J'habite au Michigan.
