Complex Sentences in French Hello. So write now I'm having this great problem with complex sentences in French. I am taking a French Literature class right now and am doing miserable in it due to my grammar and lack of knowledge on how to write proper sentences. What really is my greatest problem with complex sentences in French is which verbs do you know to conjugate??? I know that when one has multiple verbs in a sentence he/she does not have to conjugate every verb in that sentence. For example, here are a multiple of sentences I used for my in-class essay for the novel "Oscar et La Dame Rose" today in class: - Thesis: Oscar's great change throughout his story gives not only Oscar the feeling of being able to live a full life with the help of Mamie-Rose, but it also helps the others in his life to properly come to terms that the belief of a cure is not always the best answer for either party in the situation. (crappy thesis but hey, it's good enough for an in-class essay) - Oscar helps the people in his life to accept the fact that he will die soon. In the beginning of the novel everyone around him were always sad for him and tried to fake happiness and joy around him by laughing at every joke he said, for example. It is with Oscar showing that he himself accepts the fact that he will die quite soon makes everyone else understand that even though most of the cures helped other children in the hospital, it will not help Oscar in the end. Therefore with Oscar showing his acceptance of his death nearing that the others around him are able to get past the false hope of a cure and finally coming to terms with that he will die soon. This creates a better atmosphere for Oscar, where at the end of the novel he dies ready and happy to leave earth; knowing those around him will be okay once he is gone. You don't have to fix all of them... I just got ahead of myself. Sorry. Pick and choose. Please and thank you!~
