In my textbook it says that
shigoto de, france he ikimasu translates to "i am going to france for work"
But i thought France "ni shigoto o shi ni ikimasu" was the way to say that... isn't it?

Also in my book it says that "tomodachi o yon de, game o shimashita"
means I called my friend and played a game.
But in another earlier page of my book it says, "tomodachi ni denwa o kakemashita".
So my question is... Why isn't it "tomodachi ni yon de" instead of "tomodachi o yon de"?


Another part of my book says that "arubaito ga atte, isogashikattadesu"
means "i had to work part-time and was busy".
But Atte is the te for of arimasu. So wouldn't that that sentence mean
"I have a part-time job, and I was busy"?
So wouldn't it really have to be written as "arubaito ga shite, isogashikattadesu" instead of the original sentence?

gosh i hope i wasn't too confusing lol
