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.

Litteraly find and found once again

re is use to mark the repetition

Like Bonjour et rebonjour

Can put it in almost any words

Salut resalut

All of this to say that retrouver mean you lost something and found it again

[hushed notch]

Retrouver, c'est aussi trouver quelque chose ou quelqu'un après l'avoir perdu, généralement en faisant des recherches.

"retrouver" generally implies it was lost
"trouver" could be anything you found, whether you were looking for it or not
