Episode description

My students often want to say in Luxembourgish sentences such as "Before I go to work I do this and that". And then I see them hesitating and most of the time I hear phrases such as: 

Virun ech ginn op d’Aarbecht, ech drénken Kaffi. 

Short sentence but with some mistakes😉. Correct is: Éier ech op d’Aarbecht ginn, drénken ech Kaffi.  So we need to use in this example the  word éier to express before I.  But what is the difference between the tricky words virun and éier? And what about the word virdrun? Ready to learn the difference between these 3 words?
