In this lesson examples such as "Vous aurez déménagé d'ici avril" and "Nous aurons fini de creuser la piscine d'ici le mois prochain and others use the futur antérieur, yes?
Futur antérieur is not difficult to understand. However, I am following the Lawless French website algorithm for studying B1 subjects. Up to the point of "By + [point in time] = d'ici ..." the futur antérieur verb structure has not been introduced.
It's a little disconcerting to mix key grammar points, such as futur antérieur, into examples before they have been studied.
I fear I may be forever confused by your explanations of manquer whatever. I'm in favor of the spaced repetitions method but I think your system puts too much conflicting information in at one time. I need to let manquer fade from my memory and then try another approach. Any suggestions?
The French don't drink "pintes" because they don't use the imperial system. They drink "chopes". Une chope de bière.
Why is "la flatterie nous plâit" correct ..... and not "la flatterie nous à plâit"?
They (LF) show le chocolat plâit à Marie as an example.
Why is. ´Mardi 6 janvier, j'étais malade.´ wrong?
In the sentence: Tu ne peux rien mettre dans ce placard. Why is rien before mettre and not after?
When can we say "j'habite en..." instead?
I don't understand the choice of "allait" vs "va" in the sentence "Isabelle allait aussi tenter sa chance à Paris", as translating "is going" feels like "va."
One of the quiz questions: Nous ________ une fois par mois. We have money wired once a month. HINT: virer de l'argent = to wire money
The answer is listed as "Nous faisons virer de l'argent une fois par mois." Could it also be "Nous faisions virer de l'argent une fois par mois," since it's a repetitive action?
