Bonjour - i'm confused as to why this is tierce instead of troisième. The lesson stated that tierce is used for fractions or portions and troisième is used for rank or order. A third party witness sounds like a ranking/ordering to me, and not a fraction or portion.
Would appreciate clarification.
Merci
The following sentence is given as an example in a dictionary explanation for "le lendemain".
"Il a été décrété que le lendemain serait un jour férié".
Is this sentence grammatically incorrect because it uses the conjugated verb serait after le lendemain?
