Wait, this sentence doesn't use the causative faire. How would I follow it up by saying "I need to have it fixed"?
You would use faire + infinitive! To say "I need to have it fixed", you would say Je dois la faire réparer or Il faut la faire réparer. The direct object pronoun la (referring to la fuite) is placed right before faire.
The noun for "a leak" is une fuite. How do I say "to leak"?
Could I say à la cuisine instead of dans la cuisine?
Is the ui in fuite pronounced like the English word "wheat"?
