Are 'tous' pronounced as 'toos' in the following sentences?

Question

1) Sandra, Andy et moi sommes allés au restaurant tous les trois.

2) Tous, veulent nous interviewer

2nd question: Can 'they all have all of them (eg. books)' be translated as: 'Ils les ont tous tous'?

Thank you.

Accepted Answer

Bonjour Joan,
1. Tous = [toos] pronoun or [too] adjective

a. Sandra, Andy et moi sommes allés au restaurant tous les trois
→ [too] - tous + article + noun (here ‘trois’ is considered as a noun as there is a definite article before) - Adjective
b. Tous veulent nous interviewer
→ [toos] – tous = all of them - Pronoun

2. 'They all have all of them (eg. books)'

[They all] have [all of them] = Tous les ont
They have them all / all of them = Ils les ont tous

I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !
