Kwiz question " we see her tonight"  answer "nous la voyons cet soir".   I think it should be "nous lui voyons...if you follow the quick lesson.

Couple of queries:-

In the sentence ' As I grew up, it was her melancholy ...' the advice is to use c'est. Why not c'était?

and,

In the sentence 'Barbara, as you used to sing (it) so perfectly, our most beautiful love story will always be you., the 'it' refers to the 'love story' which is feminine so 'comme tu le chantais' should be 'la'?

Thanks

Je rends souvent service à mes amis- what does it mean? Can you explain, please?

The tittle of the passage is 'A quoi ça sert de trier ses déchets' is translated as what is the use of sorting our waste? Our=notre / nos? and ses = his / her / its? Please help understand if the translation is correct?

Celine, not to be too picky but it is "devions" rather than "devrions" isn't it?

Hello,

I wonder how I should say: "I only told him about it" ? 

Is it: "Je ne lui ai parlé que de ca" (this is translated by deepL but it seems wrong to me)

Or should I just say: "I told no one but him" -> "Je n'ai personne parlé que lui"

Merci.

This question was asked in a TV show I watched today: “…mais est-ce que lui voudra te voir?” My question is why is lui used instead of il?

If you are refering "vous"  formally to single person would  "Vous n'êtes pas arrivé en retard". Arrivé without the "s".
