"Veux-tu je vais là-bas?"

Can we use "Veux-tu je vais là-bas ?" as well as "Veux-tu que j'aille là-bas ?"? If yes, what is the difference between them?

l'usage de venir de devant les paysSalut KWIZIC!J'espere que vous allez bien.Mon inquietude est au niveau de venir du+pays masculins. Du (de + le) devant un pays masculin n'exprime pas la nationalite mais le deplacement de ce pays a un autre.Le verbe est venir de et la question est De ou viens-tu? La voyelle ''e'' s'elide en donnant lieu a l'appostrophe.Je viens de Benin pour signifier que je suis beninois et je viens du Benin pour faire allusion au deplacement(en route du Benin pour un autre lieu).Veuillez me contacter sur + 233242639524.

Why can't we use "distribution" for "cast" here? According to my sources "casting" isn't even a French word ?

Beaucoup de - many

'Beaucoup de marques' gets the strike through for "many brands" - Larousse notes 'beaucoup de' as a synonym with 'de nombreux', and meaning 'many' (or a lot) in front of countable nouns.
