"Nous mettrons la table après avoir préparé le dîner" vs. "Nous mettrons la table après que nous aurons préparé le dîner"

I was marked wrong for typing the latter response. Is this because the subject (nous) does not change? Therefore the second part of the sentence must remain in the infinitive?

Great use of contemporary language

Merci, j'ai aimé le nouveau vocabulaire.

alors, est-ce que "faire un carton", "se défouler" "bluffant" et "mal en point" sont des expressions assez courantes maintenant?

Score Decay feels like a gut punch this morning

More of a comment than a question, but seeing my A0 through B1 levels decline from 100% to 99% today felt like a punch in the gut. I normally only have enough time per week to take tests maybe 2-3 days, so it's been a slow and steady climb for me. I tried to knock 'em out quickly, but of course I made some minor mistakes, and now I'm doing A1 tests instead of the B2 tests I would normally be doing right now. Rough way to start the week.

"les" or "des"

Bonjour,

I have a tiny off-topic question relating the articles of the nouns before qui/que.

Must the articles always be "les" instead of "des" because the noun is defined by qui/que later on already. Is this the right way to understand it?

The examples in this lesson always use un/une and verb of preference like "adorer" (which we all know must go with definite articles).

So I'm just asking what if I want to say: "They are the girls who I saw yesterday". Should it be:

a) Elles sont les filles que j'ai vues hier

b) Elles sont des filles que j'ai vues hier

Merci.
