Tenur au courant

Dear Aurelie and team  

Could I use the expression "tenir au courant" instead of "prevenir" for the following phrase

"Tu me teniras au courant s'ils arrivent en retard, d'accord"

Thank you  Una

Hi Una,

Yes, you can use 'tenir au courant' instead of 'prévenir' but you need to conjugate the verb in the future -

Tu me tiendras au courant ...

Take a look at the following Kwiziq lesson for how to conjugate tenir, venir, and prévenir in the future simple -

Bonne Continuation!
