Question

Write an article in French for your school newspaper about the first tryout rounds of a school talent show called Nouvelle Star. Describe the abilities and talents of the participants and their shortcomings. Be sure to use the subjunctive mood wherever appropriate.

Answer 1

Vouloir may be the ultimate example of those French verbs expressing someone's will, an order, a need, a piece of advice or a desire; they all also take a subjunctive verb in the que subordinate clause. Je veux qu'il le fasse. I want him to do it.
