Please be patient

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.

sadly no not really, and some verbs change in definition which different adverbs:
parler de --> talk about
parler à --> talk to

you just have to route learn them sadly

[wraith mauve]

Like in English certain verbs and adjectives get used with certain prepositions and you simply need to memorize which work for what meaning. Also, more than just à or de can be used (for instance, sur, pour, avec, etc.)

there's tendencies for most prepositions, and you can actually find patterns to understand prepositions, like in english.

But à/de is the worst case scenario, there are very experimental definitions, but those are just convoluted gibberish hot garbage.

à and de convey the idea of cases, and de introduce a indirect object (not always the case, but it's a good start), so there's no other solutions than learning their positions by heart on each verb, because you can't just guess it.

By definition direct objects are not introduced by a preposition, si the latter half of your explanation is quite off.

My bad, I've just seen that I typed "direct objects", I might have been confused by something else.
