Bonjour!  Can someone help me with this sentence - in particular the word "en."   I am a little confused about why "en" is used along with "un épisode."  I probably would have written J'en regarderai un ce soir to mean I will watch one tonight.  Merci pour votre aide !

Thanks so much for letting us know about the Aubracs.  Most Americans no nothing about them.  Their courage and skill in working for the Resistance is inspiring.   On our Veterans Day, it is yet another story of the people who sacrificed much to overcome tyranny.   It is much appreciated! 

Why can't I use "relâcher" here? As that verb means to relax a muscle? 

I love the twist at the end, I thought she was the student ha ha ha ;)

J'allais ecrire "de nombreux" mais j'ai change ma reponse a "beaucoup de". Ma question est tout simplement pourqoui pas "beaucoup de" ? Est-ce que la phrase "de nombreux" est meilleur dans ce cas ?

Is there some reason you don't cover Le Passé Antérieur in your lessons? Although it's probably not common, I'd still like to understand the structure. Am I correct to translate "I left after I'd eaten" ... or ... "after I'd eaten I left" as

- Je fus parti aprés que j'eus mangé

- Aprés que j'eus mangé, je fus parti

And am I also correct to translate "you left after you'd eaten" ... or ... "after you'd eaten you left" as

- vous fûtes parti aprés que vous eûtes mangé

- Aprés que vous eûtes mangé, vous fûtes parti

In both cases I'm not sure if both verbs use antérieur form, or just the "after" verb?

For the sentence "pour faire de nouveaux objets en verre". If I were writing this, in order to give the same meaning, I would say "pour faire des nouveaux objets en verre". I could not really grasp the meaning it adds. Can you explain please?

This may have been touched on already: 

Je ne comprends pas le temps que ça lui prend de se préparer !

…is cited as an example of when it’s not appropriate to use the subjunctive.. Fair enough, but why is it also included amongst those examples that do use the subjunctive? Is that an error or am I missing something?
