I’ve been looking for the main difference with avoir besoin de and avoir envie de and thought I got it when you say that avoir envie de is to feel/need to DO SOMETHING!

But then the first question to answer is J’ai envie d’une nouvelle voiture and that blew it out the water.

I am confused again! Why use one over the other in this simple context?

Thank you

Partitive vs definite articles

The use of partitive vs definite articles continues to be confusing to me, such as in this phrase in the second to last paragraph, "Un lien d'avenir, grâce à l'engagement ". It is translated as, "A link to the future, thanks to the commitment," . Why is d'avenir used and not à l'avenir? And why à l'engagement and not d'engagement?

the lesson stipulates the use of être then the relevant expression but i don't see this in some examples. e.g. Ne venez pas en avance

or Nous voulons vraiment arriver. Can someone clarify this for me.

qui fait honneur à ce beau pays.

"qui fait honneur à ce beau pays."

Why isn't "rendre fier" correct?
