Why does 'I love to dance' translate as J'aime beaucoup', whereas 'I love to shine' is simply 'J'aime'? How do we know when the speaker really likes something when its only implied? I have seen the unspoken 'beaucoup' in other exersizes as well.

Hi, The question might not be completely relevant to this topic. While using direct and indirect object pronouns for them (les/leur) .We check whether a preposition is used to seperate the object to decide whether it's direct or indirect. But how do we know when to use a preposition (for eg- "a parle" (so we use leur), for "conduire" we don't use a preposition (so it becomes les)).

Just a note to add that Québec is also a city, as well as a Province (that acts like a country.)

Bonjour. In the audio "Dóu venez-vous? Nous venons du Texas" Nous venons sounds kind of strange in the beginning

Future active indicative as imperative

In Latin and English a future active indicative sometimes acts as an imperative command, like "Thou shalt not steal." I'm curious if there is any parallel to this in French? Thank you!
