Grammar Notes: - La: This is the definite article meaning "the." It is used before feminine singular nouns. - vue: This is a feminine noun meaning "view" or "sight." The phrase *la vue* translates to "the view." - des: This is the contraction of *de* (of) and *les* (the, plural). It means "of the" or "some," depending on context. Here, it means "of the." - étoiles: This is the plural form of *étoile* (feminine), meaning "stars." - me: This is a reflexive or object pronoun meaning "me." It indicates that the subject (the view of the stars) is doing something to the speaker. - fait: This is the third-person singular form of the verb *faire* (to make or to do). It means "makes" in this context. - toujours: This is an adverb meaning "always." - rêver: This is the infinitive verb meaning "to dream." ### General Grammar Tip: In French, the construction *faire + infinitive* is commonly used to express causation, meaning that something or someone causes another action to happen. In this case, "La vue des étoiles me fait rêver" means "The sight of the stars makes me dream." ### Related Words: - *penser* (to think) - Example: Cette vue me fait penser à toi. (This view makes me think of you.) - *admirer* (to admire) - Example: J'admire les étoiles. (I admire the stars.) |
