How can you tell that the qu' in "Qu'aimez-vous?" means que rather than qui? I.e., why isn't it "who do you like?" instead of "what do you like?"

de même que

I used "de même qu'". Can you explain why this isn't correct in this context, please?

infinitives preceded by de

I am still unclear when to put a de in front of an infinitive verb. I understand when the de is part of a preceding expression but consistently get it wrong. Can you give me some definitive way to determine if the infinitive verb should be preceded by de (or not)?

"Nous sommes rentrés, les vêtements tout sales et les cheveux en bataille." Is 'tout' an adverb?

Why don't we need to put 'être' in front of the word 'sale' and 'en bataille'?

For “I send my parcel” I said “J’expédie mon colis” - which was marked wrong, why ?
