French language Q&A Forum

Following on from the answer below; how do you then say "I like THE carrots" (i.e. the carrots I have on my plate right now)?

To say, 'I like carrots', you have to use the definite article,  les and say -

J'aime les carottes 

It sort of indicates in French that you like all the carrots in the world. very strange!

Des is a partitive article meaning 'some' so you might say -

Je voudrais des carottes,  s'il vous plait = I'd like some carrots, please

or 

Donnez-moi des carottes = Give me some carrots

In the Charles Aznavour song it's "On a tort de penser, je sais bien, aux lendemains". I'm confused by the lendemains as it is in the present tense and referring to the future. Why that word? Is this how one would say "tomorrows" in a poetic sense, referring to the future in a boader sense vs. just "tomorrow" as in the day after tomorrow. Could you replace lendemains with something else and still have it make sense? 

we use aller in future proche 

is it the only conjugation used in future proche ?

C'est une histoire très intéressant, spécialement le fait que l'Assomption était la Fête Nationale de France en autre époque.
