In this example - Le temps que nous arrivions, mon avion était déjà parti !

Why is it not - "Le temps que nous soyons arrivés..." because it means By the time we arrived... Why Subjonctif Passé is not used?

I'm a little bit stumped as to why the text insists on use of the pluperfect instead of le passé composé?

E.g. mes sœurs et moi avions hurlé and nous étions allés à l'église locale.

Why is it not nous avons hurlé and nous sommes allés?

Merci en avance pour la réponse!

Can you please share the rule regarding placement of 'Ne...Aucun/Aucune' in Compound Tenses?? It does not seem to follow the regular rule. It would be great if it is also added to this lesson.

In the follow sentance someone is reporting back what was said to them. 

"donc, au beau milieu de la nuit tu serais allé boire un verre d'eau et tu aurais vu une soucoupe volante dans le jardin, excuse-moi!" 

Why is the conditional being used here instead of the passe compose. And if I were to speak this sentance using the passe compose would it be incorrect. Thanks.

Hello

on the quiz: "we are leaving at four:" I chose "nous sortons à quatre," because I took it to mean "in the process of." But "partons" is correct, because "sortons" requires an actual place. Is that correct? 

Thanks

Je ne suis pas sûr qu'il ________. I'm not sure he's coming.(

The partitive article isn't use here? "Jambon, fromage et pain maison"?

Thanks

the logement hint is in the wrong section

I had this example. Why "Et toi, qui est-ce qu' as-tu rencontré?" is wrong? Can't we use qui est-ce que here?
