In the song "Tu vas me détruire", we have the sentence "Lentement, je m'y noierai, sans qu'un remord ne me vienne". It seems to me this violates the rule that ne explétif is not used when the main tense is not used with negation.
It’s the first time that I’ve come across « faire revenir » in culinary terms. Is it used over « faire dorer » for that manner of cooking or can either expression be used ?
I have another question about the use of passé compose with s’en aller. The text states: en will be before or after être: formally, it should be before, but in practice, it often ends up after.
Would the example Nous nous sommes en allés be better as Nous nous en sommes allés? It doesn’t seem to flow as well.
Merci!

Could you please explain why the use of LE in this context is a correct answer. Thank you
This is, by far, one of the worst written lesson on this site. It's confusing, too long, and the verbiage used to distinguish between the different meanings are not clear. I hate it when I read a lesson and am more confused afterward than before.
Clearly, I am not alone in this opinion!
Isn't "jour" masculine. So why is it "derniere"
We use extra e for féminin elle in passé composé. Why not in Présent tense.
elle s'est réveillée. (Passé composé)il/elle se réveille (Présent)
I am confused. Please help me out.
How can I say "I give them all an apple and "I gave them all an apple"
