I've always been confused by this: "j'aurai du" translates as "I should have" and not as "I will have had to...." but these are not quite the same, I think. "I will have had to catch the 22 bus" suggests that I did catch that particular bus, to achieve whatever, whereas "I should have" suggests that I didn't catch that bus, and perhaps failed in my intention. Similarly for "j'aurai pu" - "I could have" not "I will have been able".

Any advice/explanation appreciated!

meaning of reussir

j'aurai reussi ma vie - i will have had a successful life. Other examples of reussir have 'a' and 'de' after it on reverso. Why doesn't it need anything here? And one other thing, I'm asking quite a lot of questions and I always tick the 'get an email notification button' but I noticed just now that I have had two answers on this page, but I was not notified. Is this a glitch?

surely fatiqué is conjugated with avoir and not être. Yet the answer to the question I have posted below uses soyez and not avoir2Je vais vous ramener chez vous avant select ...que vous n'êtesque vous ne soyezvous êtesvous soyezselect ... trop fatigués. (I'm going to bring you home before you're too tired.)
