I forgot to say it when I presented Narbonósc conjunctions, but it's the same
in this language too: subjunctive is used to express future or prospective in
subclauses of time. As Narbonósc possesses both a subjunctive present and a
subjunctive future, it can use both in this case (the subjunctive future giving
a nuance of prospectivity, while the subjunctive present is used with simple
future actions).

Funny, the other ones look more Spanish, while this one is more French :) .
