Hello,
One question I have always been wondering is with the phrase "Comment vas-tu ?"
In this instance, would this be considered a formal or informal question? For example, would you use this phrase with friends? It seems conflicting that the use of "tu" would be formal in the inverse because the nature of "tu" from what I've understood to be quite formal. Could I get some clarification?
Thank you,
Eveline

Ce quoi la base de informatique et le but
In a previous lesson, J’allais + infinitive = was going to _ . This example that is captioned, is translated as ‘ I was enrolling at university’ instead of ‘I was going to enroll’.
