In "et lui avait demandé où", isn't the subject still the author, so that it should be "avais"?

I came here after missing a question that used "nulle parte" instead of "nulle part".  Is there some agreement of "parte" that I'm missing?

Are there times when you say "de les" instead of des? For example, in this sentence ... Ils essaient de l'atteindre dans l'arbre afin de l'empêcher de les manger versus Ils essaient de l'atteindre dans l'arbre afin de l'empêcher des manger??? Thanks for any feedback.

Salut a tous.

Ma question concerne l'utilisation du pronom "dont"  ici. La phrase ci-dessus peut traduire comme soit "The books I think of are remarkable" soit "the books i'm thinking about are remarkable." étant donné que penser peut prendre la préposition 'de', cette dernière formulation permet l'utilisation de "dont", n'est-ce pas ? S'il vous plaît donnez votre avis. Merci en avance.

What is the meaning of 400 coups?

Thanks

Megan

Does Tout ce dont also have the same meanings - [everything that/ all that], or is there any additional meaning to it?? Please confirm. Also a few examples would be great.

'anything that' is also an additional meaning?

(of course that the context will differ with the inclusion of de in 'tout ce dont', than 'tout ce qui' and 'tout ce que')
