In doing a translation exercise something was modified in English as being "the second most" + adj + noun (ex. the fifth richest county in the state). Could you add an example like to this lesson? Because how it's written in French turned out not to be a direct translation to English and it is not clear to me how to address a phrase like this from this lesson.

"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?

would like to see a link between these concepts explainedQui, qui est-ce qui = Who ?Qui / qui est-ce que = Whom ?Qu'est-ce qui + [verb] = What [does]...

It's very hard to spot this difference when it isn't mentioned in any of the lessons.

Physical efforts

I’m not sure about the English “physical efforts” , in my mind “physical effort seems less difficult (to me)”

so “l’effort physique me paraît moins difficile” ?

C'est v Il est

You use "il/elle" for opinions and in specifying a particular item. But say "C'est une jolie robe."

I don't get it.

Rendre Visite

Rendre visite has a somewhat negative meaning in terms of something being an obligation. That's fine if that's what is intended but you "aller voir" someone who is a friend.

Petit, quand nous rendions visite...

Est-ce que les français emploient souvent des mots comme "petit" devant quand. Par exemple, pourrais-je écrire "Saoul, quand j'ai bu trop de vin, je ne me sens pas bien"
