Questions & Answers about Je vais appeler l'agence immobilière demain matin.
If I wanted to add par contre to contrast this with another action, where would it go?
You have two main options. You can put it right at the beginning (Par contre, je vais appeler...) to strongly introduce the contrast. You can also place it after the conjugated verb aller (Je vais par contre appeler...). Both are very natural in spoken French!
Why use je vais appeler instead of the future tense j'appellerai?
Je vais appeler is the near future, formed with aller plus an infinitive. French speakers use this tense very often for concrete plans that are happening relatively soon. J'appellerai (simple future) is also perfectly correct, but the near future emphasizes that this is an immediate, set plan for tomorrow.
Why does immobilière have an extra E and an accent grave here?
Why is appeler spelled with only one L in this sentence? Doesn't it normally have two?
Appeler is a stem-changing verb. You only double the L when the letter E after it is silent (like in the present tense j'appelle). Because this sentence uses the infinitive form, the -er ending is pronounced as an 'ay' sound, so the L stays single.
