Translating both in frenchHow many different ways can both be translated into French?
For example, considering different use cases where both can serve as an adjective, an adverb, or a pronoun
1. Both finished the race at the same time.
2. They liked both gardening and landscaping.
3. Both students were eligible for scholarships.
How would we go about translating these sentences? So far, I have seen two cases of "Both" getting translated into French in two ways (a la fois, tous les deux)
Specifically, in this sentence ils aimaient tous les deux la science-fiction et les voyages,
Both serves to qualify Aline and Stephane, or the act of liking science fiction and travelling?
Thank you for your kind support!

Hello there, need some serious professional advice on understanding french language. It's been 2 months since I started learning french, i knew vew few things like numerals, alphabets, and i can able read and comprehend short sentences. My concern is that currently I'm doing everything and retaining nothing up in my brain. I'm watching YouTube videos and reddit and alot more things but unfortunately it's becoming tough day-by-day. I skipped the "conjugation part" and tried to learn vocabulary but that didn't click to me. I feel everything is there but I'm not getting it.
As an alternative to "des aiguilles de pin," can one write "d'aiguilles de pins"? Or is "des aiguilles" appropriate because (as I suppose is the case)

how do you ask. Who do they love? Qu'aiment-ils is WHAT do they love? but how would you ask WHO di they love?
"Qu' aiment-ils?" is this What do they love? How do you say "Who do they love?" ?
In the sentence "Apres, j'ai invite mes voisins a un aperitif pour faire leur connaissance", I would have thought "leur connaissance" should be plural (leurs connaissances) because she invited "mes voisins".
