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

L'homme s'est pu échapper, selon le dictée. Les évenements se sont passé, en fait.

Ce que je ne comprends pas, c'est que c'est écrit au conditionnel passé. Il serait montré = he would have boarded. Il est montré = he boarded.  un hélicoptère se serait posé = ...would have landed.   ..s'est posé = landed, ...s'était posé = had landed. Am I correct about these tenses and translations? (I don't doubt that the dictée is correct but don't understand the tenses.)

(I don't think this is the plus-que-parfait.)

Merci pour votre comprehension.

Why is it "disparaisse" and not "ait disparu"? Because at the time of the story being told (two days before she disappeared) she had not yet disappeared?

Hey, 

I often struggle with grammar but am a little confused as to why it is 'de tomates' but followed by 'des fraises' after. both subjects are plural so why is it not 'des tomates' ? I imagine it is to do with 'un kilo de ...' ? Just wondered if anyone could explain this

Thanks!

Kwiziq, I think this lesson needs a little reviewing!! There's much confusion in this for learners at the minute.

"This is a number written in French: "14,052" How would it be expressed in English?"

The correct answer to this is also '14,052' fourteen thousand and fifty two, but I'm told the answer is incorrect. The only reason you would ever put a fullstop in there '14.052' would be to express a very accurate measurement for example '14.052g' - fourteen point zero five two grams.
