prepositions before infinitives - à porterAprès tous ces mois à porter les mêmes vêtements

Could you help me find a reference to understanding the use of prepositions before infinitives (I understand prepositions after).

Also, I read the question as 'after months of wearing', but can à be used for the preposition 'of'?

Abstract or things to thank forHi, in this example: Elle vous remercie pour toute votre aide - I would think of "de" instead of "pour" as it does look to me as an abstract noun. There's no context and we can think of moral aid as well, which is clearly abstract. How to choose in similar cases? Merci en avance!

Verb endingThe following is a question that was asked on one of the quizzes that asks for the verb ending. The answer is te but I don't know why and I have reread the lesson several times but for some reason I still can't make sense of the ending. Please advise. La lettre que j'ai écri....te________The letter that I wrote(HINT: Add the correct verb ending)

Suggestion for the lesson

Dear Team,

Suggestion for the page

Avoir in Futur Simple + voulu / pu / dû [past participles]

As I can see with all the examples the formula seems to be

Avoir in Futur Simple + voulu / pu / dû [past participles] + infinitive

Unless there is a context where an infinitive doesn't follow vouloir, pouvoir & devoir.

Thanks for all your lesson. Keep up the great work.

Regards

Ignatius
