  • 1 Usage note : to

    This dictionary contains usage notes on such topics as the clock, weight measurement, games and sports etc. Many of these use the preposition to.
    When to is used as a preposition with movement verbs (go, travel etc.) it is often translated by à but remember to use en with feminine countries ( en France) and au with masculine countries ( au Portugal) ; ⇒ Countries and continents.
    Remember when using à in French that à + le always becomes au and à + les always becomes aux.
    When to forms the infinitive of a verb taken alone (by a teacher, for example) it needs no translation:
    to go
    = aller
    to find
    = trouver etc.
    However, when to is used as part of an infinitive giving the meaning in order to, it is translated by pour:
    he’s gone into town to buy a shirt
    = il est parti en ville pour acheter une chemise
    to is also used as part of an infinitive after certain adjectives: difficult to understand, easy to read etc. Here to is usually translated by à: difficile à comprendre, facile à lire:
    it’s easy to read
    = c’est facile à lire
    However, when the infinitive has an object, to is usually translated by de:
    it’s easy to lose one’s way
    = il est facile de perdre son chemin
    To check translations, consult the appropriate adjective entry: difficult, easy etc.
    to is also used as part of an infinitive after certain verbs: she told me to wash my hands, I’ll help him to tidy the room etc. Here the translation, usually either à or de, depends on the verb used in French. To find the correct translation, consult the appropriate verb entry: tell, help etc. For all other uses see the entry to.

    Note that names of languages in French are always written with a small letter, not a capital as in English ; also, French almost always uses the definite article with languages, while English does not. In the examples below the name of any language may be substituted for French and français:
    French is easy
    = le français est facile
    I like French
    = j’aime le français
    to learn French
    = apprendre le français
    However, the article is never used after en:
    say it in French
    = dis-le en français
    a book in French
    = un livre en français
    to translate sth into French
    = traduire qch en français
    and it may be omitted with parler:
    to speak French
    = parler français or parler le français
    When French means in French or of the French, it is translated by français:
    a French expression
    = une expression française
    the French language
    = la langue française
    a French proverb
    = un proverbe français
    a French word
    = un mot français
    and when you want to make it clear you mean in French and not from France, use en français:
    a French book
    = un livre en français
    a French broadcast
    = une émission en français
    When French means relating to French or about French, it is translated by de français:
    a French class

    = un cours de français

    = un dictionnaire de français

    English-speaking
    = anglophone
