Bilbon fut très attention à ne pas réveiller le dragon.

it shouldnt be from here pls reply

the lesson says: To express after + -ing / after having + past participle in French, you use the same following structure:

ATTENTION:
Use the same auxiliary as in compound tenses like Le Passé Composé. 

But all the examples are using avoir. Could you expand a little about using être in this situation? Thanks!

Are the words chosen in the text above the best way to express the thoughts? because they don't necessarily match the "best" response in the exercises.

One of the quiz answers is "I've got other friends".  My high school English teacher would say that's not bad English, it's horrible English.  It should be "I have other friends".

One of the test questions from another lesson:

Je suis sûre que nous ________ ce livre.

answer: aimerons

Why do we use Le Futur instead of subjonctif present? Do we use Subjonctif present automatically after 'que'?

Salut, pouvez-vous m'expliquer le temps du verbe dans cette phrase:

Je n'avais jamais boursicoté avant que Belinda ne suggère que je tente le coup et bien que je sois encore en train d'apprendre les ficelles..."

Pourquoi est le present utilisé?

Merci !

I also had difficulties understanding the sentences because the audio was too fast for me. However, I understand that the french speak fast and I need to spend a lot of time listening to spoken french for my ears to get used to it.
