So I was writing that sentence in Eo and I was wondering many things about it:
"do estas neniel scii se estas estonteco aŭ estanteco…"
(I was talking about the past tense of the verb "to hit" in english.)
Between the "neniel" and "scii", must i add a preposition, like "por" or "de"? Also to talk about the present tense, is it acceptable to say "estanteco"? Third question, between "se" and "estas", must i specify the object, like "tio" or "ĝi". And if anything else is odd, don't hesitate to tell me !
ĝis baldaŭ
P.S.: You can answer me in french or english

You don't need to use subject in Esperanto. Don't translate English "it" if it is add only ĉar in English you must have a subject.
"They" is translated "oni" in such cases.
"If" that begins a question is translated "ĉu".
"Estonteco" or "Futuro" is "Future".
"Estanteco" or "Nuntempo" is "Present"
"Estinteco" or "Pasinteco" is "Past".

So if that sentence if a question, i do like you wrote: "Do eblas neniel scii, ĉu estas estinteco aŭ estanteco…"
But if I say it as a statement sentence, how would I proceed?
Thanks again
P.S.: on a totally other subject, quick question, what already is the affixe for -abl ? ex.: understandable, eatable, etc.

"Ĉu" is usable for direct or indirect questions.
Esperanto suffixes can be used as apart words: ebla (possible), aĵo (thing), ino (female), ulo (guy), onte (in future), eco (property), ujo (container) etc.
