Prochain vs SuivantI get confused between prochain and suivant. The next day is le jour suivant, but the next summer is l'ete prochain, right? How do I know when to use what? Thanks.

present/pastFrom a writing challenge: "I've always done it like that. If I changed now you wouldn't find them anymore" -> "J'ai toujours fait comme ça. Si je CHANGEAIS maintenant, tu ne les trouverais plus". Why should we use l'imparfait (changeais) when talking about something one might do now/maintenant, why not le présent ? (Yes, I know it mirrors the English "changed", but English is not my native language either)

Le mot "vissent"Je ne comprends pas le mot "vissent" dans la phrase "Nous avions dû nettoyer la maison avant que mes parents ne vissent le désordre." Je pensais que ce serait le subjonctif du verbe "voir" mais je l'ai trouvé sous le mot "visser".
