"Ils avaient fait..." 

"Il avait fait..." 

These two sentences sound same. Is there a way that we can understand the correct sujet?

for example...

would translate as: mes mains were not stopping trembling. I get very confused over this particular usage. Most of the use of imparfait that I get wrong are due to this rule. Could you explain it better?

When they arrive, you will welcome them.  

One follows the other, why doesn't this use the FA?

The answer says that it used the Future.   Thx -- Bill --
