Your English is fine!

I don’t know enough about how C# is AOTd to really answer that. I mean, some runtime code would still need to be in there, I assume?

Yes, the approach is similar to all major AOT compilers on .NET space.

NGEN, .NET Native, CoreRT, Mono, Xamarin, IL2CPP, HPC#.

A minimal runtime is always needed, for some of the language semantics, FFI and memory management.
