L’Indicatif(Le Futur Simple) vs Le Subjonctif PrésentBonjour Madame Cécile !
Here are two sentences involving the verb “pleuvoir”->
1. Il est possible qu’il ________ (pleuvoir) ce matin.
2. Le bulletin météo prévoit qu’il _______(pleuvoir) demain.
Now, I would like to ask that in Case 1, it is quite identifiable that one would use Le Subjonctif Présent as there is a sense of doubt and uncertainty expressed in this sentence.The required conjugation would be “pleuve”.
In Case 2, the correct answer mentioned is “pleuvra” though I had written ‘pleuve’ as I interpreted it the same way as in the former case since the weather department always predicts and never ascertains the weather.
Having re-read the notes, I further question why can’t one use “pleuvra” (Le Futur Simple) in Case 1 then ?
I would request you to please highlight the grammatical concept behind the same.
Merci beaucoup et je vous souhaite une bonne journée !

Just FYI, the HINT i.e. mon rêve is attached to the wrong audio file.
Why is it “des lasagnes’ and not “de lasagne”? Presumably I would only take one order of lasagne?
Or is it that it could be either ( which of course if it could, if I am super hungry) and the more important thing is that I can hear the difference between “des” and “de”, since it is a listening exercise?
Thanks.
I believe "recommendations" should be "recommandations", can someone please confirm that ? Thanks Paul.
Why s' ouvre? The verb "ouvre" is not a reflexive verb.
Thank you in advance for taking time to answer.
My question has to do with the use of the hyphen. Am I correct in assuming that when the pronoun comes after the verb a hyphen must be added?
For vecu, why isn't there a cedille under the "c"? Recu uses a cedille and I thought that CU combinatioin made it a hard c. I don't expect an answer, but at least I tried.
It was just to say that i’ve never seen cotton buds marketed as “les cotons-tiges” in South West France, where I live, but as “les bâtonnets ouatés”
