Nous aimons nous promener sur l'avenue.
What does the second "nous" in the sentence mean?Is it like "I like 'our walking' on the avenue"?Can I say this way then? Nous aimons que nous promenons sur l'avenue.
Thanks.

Why "Après manger" and not "Après mangé" or "Après avoir mangé".
Hi, I have played "J'en vaux vraiment la peine !" a number of times and it sounds like she is saying "vous" and not "vaux" - it sounds like "vaux" in "Tu vaux mieux que ça !" - can you please confirm if it is right or wrong?
