In English, the word 'between' is used when there is a choice between two items. If the choice is more than two, the word 'among' is used. Is this different in French? Or in this case, does 'entre' have the same meaning as 'among'. Merci!

bien que in Larousse vs. Collins

My question is about bien que. Sorry if this the wrong place to bring it up, but Jameson brought it up.

I had thought that bien que was a trigger for the subjonctive.

I went to Larousse to look at bien que:

https://www.larousse.fr/dictionnaires/francais-anglais/bien/9074

bien que

locution conjonctive

despite the fact that, although, though

bien que malade, il a tenu à y aller although he was ill, he insisted on going

NOT the subjonctive

https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/french-english/bien-que

bien que CONJONCTION

although

Il fait assez chaud bien qu’il n’y ait pas de soleil. It’s quite warm although there’s no sun. subjonctive

So, please can someone explain this to me?

Is this used in daily life?

In an earlier lesson, we learned that for normal verbs, inversion is usually too formal. People usually say the sentence with an upward inflection or use Est-ce que.

Is that not so in the case of reflexive verbs?
