Pas de souci, ils vont te montrer des options demain.

No problem, they will show you some options tomorrow.

✕Common Mistakes

Ils vont montrer te des options.
In the future proche, the object pronoun must stay before the infinitive, not after 'vont'.
Ils vont montrer des options.
Do not drop the pronoun; 'te' is required to indicate who receives the options.
Ils vont te montrer les options.
If you want to be more specific, you can replace 'des' with 'les' when the options are already known.

↔Alternatives

Ils vont te présenter des choix.
They will present you with choices.
Ils vont te proposer plusieurs alternatives.
They will propose several alternatives to you.
Ils vont te faire voir différentes options.
They will let you see different options.

Cultural Tip

In French business settings, it’s common to use the future proche to reassure a client that options will be provided soon. However, avoid over‑promising; if you’re not certain the options will be ready, use the conditional (ils pourraient vous montrer…) to stay polite and realistic.
