là is here and there?
This question relates to:French lesson "À côté de, en face de, à l'extérieur de, à l'intérieur de, près de, loin de, au coin de (French Prepositions)"
Asked 3 years ago
The correspondence that là is there and ici is here is too simplistic. Ici is, however, closer to the speaker than là, and là-bas is further away.

For some reason your system deleted the question I put in there, it seems to delete things when certain symbols are used in the text!
