do "de" also mean to?

[molten cove]

did you find somewhere that does so? where did you find this out?

[halcyon wing]

wait

on translate

but nevermind

to is â right

[molten cove]

à is more so: at/to

de could be to in some contexts

[halcyon wing]

is there a word only for to

[molten cove]

no

[halcyon wing]

okay so i should mainly use â?

[molten cove]

english and french arent the same language

depends on context

again, but in general:
De = of
à = at/to

[halcyon wing]

okay tysm

in this sentence

is de "of" of "sert"?

or "of" of "sert encore"

[molten cove]

what is the point OF praying Notre Dame

what in the beginner are you reading

[halcyon wing]

isnt this sentence what is the point of praying to notre dame?

[molten cove]

yeah

[halcyon wing]

because of "Â"

[molten cove]

yes

[halcyon wing]

okay thanks

[molten cove]

but à is like

[halcyon wing]

yeah

[glossy wharf]

à not â, â is not a word on its own

[halcyon wing]

oh sorry

i saw it like â

[glossy wharf]

also these are prepositions so they won't line up very well between languages

hence why there are so many possibilities

often you just have to learn it with the verbs you use
