Can you explain why, in the sentence "quand j'ai envie de viande", we do not have a future tense after quand?  Thank you.

I'm wondering about this sentence: "Des festivites incontournables qui prennent habituellement fin a Mardi Gras, soit la veille du..."

What is the reason for the subjunctive verb tense of "soit" toward the end of this statement? 

Why is it "C'est là que j'ai appris" and not "C'est là où j'ai appris"? 

For the sentence "je joue au beach volley avec Lydia et notre équipe gagne", why is "gagner" take the form of "gagne" instead of "gagnons"? I would think since it is "our team winning" it would be "notre équipe gagnons", but I think I am missing something here!

Isn’t the character who marries Cosette called, ‘Marius’ and not, ‘Marcus’? :-)

Are any of these alternative answers possible?

1. Je me souviens toujours de la première fois ... (In place of encore - I often have trouble with encore and toujours in this context of still, but in some cases I believe they can both be equally correct?)

2. Elle a passé la plupart de sa carrière ... (in place of la majorité or l’essentiel)

3. ... dont elle a souffert pendant toute sa vie (in place of ... don’t elle a souffert tout au long de sa vie)

Thanks

what is the plural of le crayon in french

What do you do in the case of "il faut que" such as "Il faut que j'aille faire les courses."    On second reference, you wouldn't say, "il le faut?"  Could you say "" Il faut que j'y aille" or "Je le dois?"  Or, does this "le" rule not apply to Il faut que?  Scrambled here!:)

Slightly better, but still "no cigar"  --  Some of the problems are vocabulary, but others are apparently confusion re: the verbs - which tense is appropriate - and when to use "on" instead of "nous"
