English vs American EnglishI find it amusing from this side of the pond. It is not good English here to say he's got a brother, he has a brother is more proper to the tongue. We ask how many siblings do you have? not have you got? Just usage, neither wrong. There are numerous expressions I see you Brits use and we don't!

Après avoir/êtreAll of the examples I've seen with après avoir/être + past particple are followed by another action in the past tense e.g. 'après avoir lu mon livre, je suis allé au lit'. However, can the comstruction be used with a second action in the present tense? e.g. 'après avoir lu mon livre, je vais au lit' to mean 'after reading my book, I go to bed'.

Kinds of "en"In a quiz for another topic we were supposed to make imperative of "Tu n'en parles pas" and it was incorrect to write "Ne parles-en pas !" like in this topic. Are these two kinds of "en"? How does one tell the difference?
