Past and future

Past and future

This is touched on in the discussion, but I wonder if you can clarify which expressions can be used in the future too? Obviously hier and demain cannot. I realise the first paragraph does specify "past point of view" but there doesn’t seem to be a future equivalent lesson.  Thanks, and I’m sorry to add to an already long thread!

Bonjour Anne !

Thanks you for that interesting question :)
Indeed, the "future" point of view is also part of this lesson, and thanks to you, it's now been added to it. So to answer your question, you use the same terms for the future as you would for the past point of view, i.e. le lendemain/la veille etc

I've now added extra examples to show this in the lesson.

I hope that's helpful!
Merci et bonne journée !
