    The phrase "à moins que" is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing a condition or possibility. It is followed by the subjunctive mood when the action in the subordinate clause is uncertain or hypothetical.

    The correct answer is "Subjonctif". In French, "sans que" is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing a negative purpose or condition. When "sans que" is used, the verb in the main clause is followed by the subjunctive mood. Therefore, the correct form to use after "sans que" is the subjunctive.

    The correct answer is "Subjonctif" because "à condition que" is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing a condition. In French, when a condition is expressed, the verb in the main clause is usually in the indicative mood, while the verb in the subordinate clause is in the subjunctive mood. Therefore, "à condition que" requires the subjunctive mood.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Subjonctif" because "à supposer que" is a phrase that introduces a hypothetical situation or a supposition. In French, when expressing something hypothetical or uncertain, the subjunctive mood is used. Therefore, the verb following "à supposer que" should be in the subjunctive form.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Subjonctif." In French, "pourvu que" is a conjunction that is used to express a wish or a condition. When "pourvu que" is followed by a verb, it requires the use of the subjunctive mood. The subjunctive mood is used to express uncertainty, doubt, or subjective opinion. Therefore, in this case, the correct answer is "Subjonctif."

    Avant que

    • A.

      Subjonctif

    • B.

      Indicatif

    Correct Answer
    A. Subjonctif
    Explanation
    "Avant que" is a subordinating conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing an action that must be completed before the main clause can occur. In French, when "avant que" is followed by a verb, the verb in the subordinate clause is usually in the subjunctive mood. This is because the subjunctive is used to express uncertainty or subjectivity, which is appropriate in this context as the completion of the action in the subordinate clause is not guaranteed. Therefore, the correct answer is "Subjonctif."

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Subjonctif" because "jusqu'à ce que" is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing a goal or purpose. In French, when the main clause expresses a wish, necessity, doubt, or emotion, the subordinate clause is usually in the subjunctive mood. Therefore, the correct mood to use after "jusqu'à ce que" is the subjunctive.

    Explanation
    "bien que" is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing a contrast or concession. It is followed by the subjunctive mood in French. The subjunctive is used to express subjective actions, desires, doubts, or hypothetical situations. In this case, "bien que" indicates a contrast or concession, suggesting that the action or situation described in the subordinate clause may not be certain or real. Therefore, the correct answer is "Subjonctif."

      Subjonctif

    • B.

    A. Subjonctif
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Subjonctif" because "malgré que" is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing a contrast or opposition. In French, when "malgré que" is used, the verb in the main clause is usually in the indicative mood, while the verb in the subordinate clause is in the subjunctive mood. Therefore, the correct answer is "Subjonctif."

    Explanation
    The phrase "après que" is followed by the indicative mood.

      Subjonctif

    • B.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Indicatif" because "dès que" is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause expressing a condition or a cause. In this case, it is used to indicate a temporal condition, meaning "as soon as." When "dès que" is followed by a verb in the main clause, the indicative mood is used to express a factual or certain action that will happen immediately after the condition is fulfilled. Therefore, the indicative mood is the appropriate choice in this context.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Indicatif" because "alors que" is a conjunction that introduces a contrast or opposition between two clauses.
