Perhaps even in another lesson on this site, but certainly in other references have seen 'le Zaïre' as an exception to the "-e rule" - I believe it is also masculine and should be added to the list in this lesson. For example https://www.lawlessfrench.com/vocabulary/countries-and-continents/
But if you do use possessive adjectives when another person is involved, why can't I say "François reste dehors, ses chaussures couvertes de boue." François is another person. Am I misunderstanding and what you meant by "other person"?
How does it work then? Do you use"les pieds" to say "He washes his feet" but "ses pieds" if I'm washing his feet? Is that right?
Hi there, I was wondering if you could clarify when one should use "à" versus "en" to mean "to" or "at".
Par exemple dans cette phrase: j'enverrais régulièrement en prison. Why wouldn't it be j'enverrais... à prison?
Thanks!

je ne peux malheureusement pas ....
