Le son IN
With some of the pronounciation cards, I feel a bit confused. For example this one "Le son IN" the way I imagined it to be pronounced (Le son 'een') but your version sounds more like "ein" (like german). I went to see what google translate would pronounce it as and it also said it more like 'een'. I might be just listening to hard haha 😅 but I wasn't sure if that is just dialect or if there are different ways this could be said?

@Etien Rousseau I believe so! Im just wondering though is this more of a quebec dialect? Since google translate maybe says it more france french? It sounds very different

@Etien Rousseau ahh okay, thank you for the clarification! that cleared a lot~
Translation of "I'm going"
This is a really quick q! I was going over some of the decks again and notice in Level 07, some of these go like "Je vais au restaurant" ou "Je vais à la maison". Shows as "I go to the restaurant" or "I go to the house". Shouldn't this be "I'm going to ..[]"?

@Etien Rousseau Ah okay I see, I was thinking maybe "I go" was "'Je vais"' and "I'm going" was something different. Thought too much about it!
We are vs spoken version
I have been studying the beginner deck but I’m a bit confused on what this “spoken” means. For example, the card shows: - Nous sommes - we are - On est - we are (spoken) When do we use these in specific scenarios and what is “spoken”?😄

@Etien Rousseau Ahh I see now, so its literal then when you say spoken vs how we write to each other. That's interesting 😯 Thanks for the explanation!
