In English "the day after", "the next day" and the "the following day" mean the same. Likewise "the day before" = "the previous day". In French, do le lendemain, le jour d’après and le jour suivant /la veille, le jour d’avant and le jour précédent differ from each other in meaning or mainly in register?
Secondly, from the point of view of today, are l’après-demain and l’avant-hier used in conversation?

In the 2nd quiz on plus-que-parfait (La soiree de mes Reves), the 4th blank from the END requires us to conjugate faciliter in the plus-que-parfait tense.

Can you please explain why we are using the 3rd person singular form of conjugation of the auxiliary verb in imparfait (il /elle / on avait) rather than that with nous (avions) here ?
Pourquoi la phrase avec des cocotiers manque t-Elle les partitifs (avec des cocotiers, du sable), or is it because it is like a dream 'aah, cocotiers, sable banc, cocktails
In the 'Fill-the-blanks' Kwiz 'Nos activites pendant les vacances', my answer: 'Les enfants essaieront la peche a pied avec un guide local' was marked wrong, with the correction provided of 'Les enfants essaierons ...' The correction Kwiziq shows is 1st person plural, but I thought that 'The kids will try shellfish gathering with a local guide' is 3rd person plural.
Au secours! Merci!
