In this lesson we study the negative forms in French and the construction «faire + infinitive», using the dialogues and exercises from Leçon 27.
About this lesson
In Lesson 27 you will explore two key grammar topics at A2 level: negation (négation) and the construction «faire + infinitive». You will learn how to make sentences negative with ne…pas, ne…plus, ne…jamais, ne…rien, ne…personne and the restrictive ne…que. You will understand how the French express the idea of having someone else carry out an action by means of faire + infinitive. All of this will be learned through the authentic dialogues of Sylviane, Cédric and the other characters from Saint-Tropez.
