From Annabelle's reply, we can derive that "The French reply to ‘how are you?’ is structured differently than in English." This is because her response, "I go well," reflects a direct translation of the French response "Je vais bien," which means "I am doing well." This indicates that she is applying her understanding of French to answer the question in English.
