The English sentence says "She can sing", not "She knows how to sing". I know how to sing but I can't sing because my voice is terrible. Can all French people (or Quebecoise) who know how to sing, actually sing???

Are 'ou non' and 'ou pas' interchangeable?  If not, how do I know when to use each one? Examples I have come across in my studies: "Que tu l'admettes ou non, ce ne sont pas tes amis." and "C'est comme ça qu'elle veuille l'accepter ou pas.

Hi,

I wonder why is it "sur Orléans" and not "à Orléans" ?

‘Ce n’est que au petit matin’ : pourquoi pas ‘ce n’était  que au petit matin’?

Does the use of this phrase (When something has happened, something else will) automatically make the "something else" far enough in the future to use futur simple rather than present tense ? Certainly some of the examples here would likely be fairly soon in the future, but they all use futur simple !

Bonjour à tous, j'aurais une question sur le mot "ça". Est-elle utilisè en français dans des contextes formels? Par example, utilisons nous "je veux ça" en français? Merci pour le réponses.

'I always loved...' Why is it in the past tense and not imparfait in French? I felt it was an opinion. (P.S Found this query very well explained below. So please ignore this part.)

Why is apprendre preferred over étudier?

Why is it "J'ai du mal à (verb)", instead of "J'ai du mal a (verb)"? 

I only know we use it for locations, such as "Je suis à Paris"
