Do we use "se coucher" with "the sun sets at 9" as in "Le soleil se couche à 9h"? If so, may be worth mentioning in the lesson.

Se coucher meanings
This question relates to:French lesson "Conjugate reflexive verb se coucher in the present tense in French (Le Présent)"

Bonjour William,
Thank you for your excellent contribution! Indeed, you are absolutely right that 'to set at + [time]' is the direct translation of 'se coucher à + [time]'. In French, one talks about ‘le lever et le coucher du soleil’ ( = sunrise and sunset). Here is a link for anyone’s general curiosity:la-planete-du-soir-et-du-matin
Merci et bonne journée !
