Hello !

Quelques exemples valent mieux qu'un long discours :

- I won't believe it until I see it.

- It's not waste until you waste it.

- The snowstorms' effect won't be known until we get to the spot.

- The campaign isn't over until he wins the election.

- The game/show is not over until the fast lady sings (il ne faut jamais désespérer)

- He will not shave his beard until his wife is set free.

- Not until he had arrived/got home did he find he had left his coat in the train. (inversion dans la proposition principale parce que la négation commence la phrase)


NB : not until = not before
