Questions & Answers about La prochaine génération aura moins d'enfants.
Why does this sentence use aura (futur simple) instead of va avoir (futur proche)?
Aura is the futur simple (will have), which is perfect for predictions about the distant future. If we said va avoir (is going to have), it would sound like an immediate certainty happening very soon, which doesn't fit a general guess about a whole generation.
Why is prochaine before the noun here? Usually we put it after, like in la semaine prochaine (next week).
Is aura a regular verb in the futur simple?
Why is it moins d'enfants and not moins des enfants?
