I don't understand...

Hiii so here you have showed us examples but haven't actually explained the function of "ne". What is the point of using "ne" on its own? (I mean when not being paired as ne...pas/ne...que/ne...plus)

I've asked my boyfriend who is french and even he can't explain it to me either haha.

Why "les a aidees"?Why does the text use "ce qui les a aidees"? "Rencontres quotidiennes" is plural. It seems to me it should be "ce qui les ont aidees."

Clarification please

From the lesson «When talking about two actions that happen simultaneously, you will use :

en + Participe présent / Gérondif»; can you not also use imparfait and passé composé eg Je courait quand j'ai rencontré Mathilde ? I am not suggesting the same meaning or English translation, but the sentence still describes the simultaneous occurrence of events, that could also be described using le gérondif. If that is correct, the quote from the lesson should replace 'will use' with 'can use' (and preferably reference the lesson on passé composé and imparfait being used together as another). If there are reasons to choose one over the other, worth noting as well.

De plus infinitive verb

Hello,

I have a question. I am working on this sentence. Elle menace de partir for the present tense.

I was wondering why they use de partir instead of à meaning to leave.

Thanks
