how do I say how long I've been doing an activity eg playing the piano for two years?

You'll be pleased to hear that it's much easier in French than in English!Instead of worrying about translating word for word a complicated phrase like I've been playing (piano) for... you just use the present tense followed by depuis - Je joue du piano depuis 2 ans.
