Just curious..would ‘I see that you’re also staying tonight’ translate differently than ‘..staying tonight also’? That is 'restez aussi ce soir' vs 'restez ce soir aussi'
Why can't you say
Dis-moi quetu fais le weekend.
Dis-moi ce que tu fais le weekend.
In the beginning of the text, according to the context, "j'ai travaillé" could very well have been "je travaillais".
In fact, the second is more probable since it fits better: "A few years ago I was working at..." as opposed to " A few years ago I worked at..."
When the owner is a person, you can alternatively use "de qui" as well as dont:
Les enfants, de qui je connais la maman, sont bien élevés.
The children, whose mum I know, are well behaved.
Can I say that
Les enfants, de qui les pères sont riches, sont bien élevés.
The children, whose fathers are rich, are well behaved
I wish your helps...
Merci beaucoup

je ne suis pas tout à fait d’accord avec le contenu de cette chanson même si elle joue bien de la guitarre et possède une jolie voix
I have already pointed out that it has turned out to be impossible to introduce a cedilla in our responses, either using the directions on your page or keyboard commands that usually works for MS Word. So, I will always be faulted for this apparent mistake even though I have done my best to avoid it.
