Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.
Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`
Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.
like, 'like he knew the secret to doing'? sort of expression?
Could 'avait l'habitude' or 'avait la connaissance' also work, with slightly different meanings?
Sort of.
And no, avait l'habitude just means he had the habit, it doesn't mean nobody can reproduce what he was doing, and avait la connaissance simply refers to the knowledge, it has nothing to do with the actual action.
