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.

“Comme on peut le voir sur cette photo, …” is more correct.

tysm for the quick response!! why do we have to include le?

[sharp garnet]

Honestly, I don't know. A pronoun referring back to the main topic is always included in such constructions ("as we can <verb>, ...")
Comme vous pouvez le constater, ...
Comme tu le sais, ....
Comme on en a parlé, ....
Comme ils y ont fait allusion, ....

ohh that does help! thank you so much!

It seems like french just is more inclined to include object pronouns than English. E.g. 'je le sais' sounds more natural than 'I know it' where 'it' will be typically omitted
