Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can use 'il faut' and 'il ne faut pas' to describe what must and must not be done in the context of work experience.

Show transcript
'il faut' is a common impersonal verb, only used in the 3rd person singular, meaning 'it is necessary to'. Add 'ne ... pas' to 'il faut' to say what must not be done e.g. 'Il ne faut pas courir' (you must not run). Change -if adjectives to -ive in the feminine form. Adjectives ending -if/ive are often cognates but [i] is a longer vowel than English 'i'.
