De là-haut or depuis là-haut ?

Both are correct, I think. Depuis is being red-lined.

Bonjour Maarten,

As far as I know, 'depuis là-haut' is a little "awkward" to use as in it does sound strange to my French ears. But I am I am happy to be proven wrong ;-)

Tes parents t'observent de là-haut = your parents see you from above

Je te vois bien de là-haut = I see you fine from up there

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
