Show transcript
Senegal is a postcolonial West African nation. French as an official language coexists with many national languages. 'Devoir', 'pouvoir', 'vouloir' and 'savoir' are modal verbs and they are followed by infinitives. We use 'devoir' to say what someone must or has to do. Another way to show necessity is to use 'il faut'. Adjectives ending in -if change to -ive in the feminine form. Possessive adjectives show who things belong to. They change to agree with the gender and number of the noun.
