The question read, How do you say, “We don’t know you at all.” Before I clicked on the drop-down arrow, I was expecting to see: Nous ne vous connaissons pas du tout. I was surprised to see that the choices only included the familiar form: Nous ne te connaissons pas du tout. Wouldn’t the fact that the familiar form was used imply that we do know you? Is it that I was applying a literal meaning to a figurative question?

À la fin de quoi?

Are the expressions "à la fin de" and "au bout de" interchangeable or are they used in different contexts?

Evolution of Le Passé Simple

Could you point me to a reference that would explain and describe the evolution of the use of le passé simple? I understand it's mostly used for literature but I can't find an article that describes it's origin. Does it stem (no pun intended) from French's latin roots, Langue d'oil, Germanic influences? Thanks!

"Bougez pas !"

I keep making the mistake of dropping "Ne" on this one because I watch a lot of policiers, and when the cops burst into a room they always shout "Bougez pas !" Note to self: don't model your grammar on TV cops.
