I am trying to determine when to use 'emmener' and when to use 'amener' and to some extent 'apporter'. All of the examples seem to imply that the first two refer to people, whereas 'apporter' refers to things. Is that right? Is there any guidance regarding the usage of 'emmener' vice 'amener' ? Both translate to take or bring and in some contexts the meaning is lead. Thanks.
In the phrase 'une sensation de liberté telle qu'elle n'en avait jamais ressenti' why is ressenti not feminine ?

In this exercise, can we substitute the preposition “à” for “dans” in any or all of these sentences:
1. Nous irions ensemble dans des galeries d’art (ou à des galeries d’art) ?
2. Nous pourrions manger dans un bon bistrot (ou à un bon bistrot) ?
3. Je l’emmènerais dans un charmant petit parc (ou à un charmant petit parc) ?
I put “à” for (1) and (3) and wondered if it was acceptable alternative, similar to saying “on va au cinéma” ou “à la boulangerie”.
