I don't understand the assignment. How can you replace a verb with an indefinite pronoun?

Answered by Ms. Sue
Do you mean you need to change the subject to "on" and then use the correct verb ending?

I don't know but the instructions say

Remplace les mots en italique par le pronoun on. Attention a la forme du verbe!

Yes

The instructions you wrote above are not what your instructions say. You are supposed to replace the words in italics with the pronoun on. Pay attention to the verb form!

Please capitalize the words in italics.

I'll send this to our French expert, SraJMcGin.

Actually this is very easy! What you are looking at in the basic sentence is a subject pronoun (I, you, she, he, we, they, etc.) plus the conjugated French verb form that agrees with that subject.

The use of "on" makes the subject impersonal. "One" is the translation, although "freely translated" it can be "I, you, he, she, it, we, they" in English although the French verb will be the 3rd person singular form (whatever you use for he, she, it!)

By the way, don't forget to put the accent marks where they are supposed to go! If a word requires an accent mark, it is incorrect without it! If you don't know how to do that with your computer, search online for "accents on the computer."

To make this easier for you, I will only do the verbs you see, and the verbs you need to change them to.


1. Les gens admirent = On admire
2. moi et mes amis avons vu (oops, no agreement of the past participle with a preceding direct object? = error) = on a vu
3. quelqu'un a laissé = on a laissé
4. moi et mon groupe faisons = on fait
5. nous ne pouvons pas croire = on ne peut pas croire
6. (check spelling of anguille) = quelqu'un sait = on sait

Do you see how easy that is? Only the 3rd person singular is used with "on."

I'll flag this and come back later, in case you have any questions.
