Questions & Answers about C'est le plus grand changement, et je suis content qu'ils enlèvent le parking.
Why is the subjunctive used for "enlèvent" in this sentence?
"Enlèvent" looks exactly like the normal present tense. Is it really the subjunctive?
It is! For regular -er verbs like enlever, the ils/elles form in the present subjunctive is spelled exactly the same as in the present indicative. We know it is technically the subjunctive here because the grammar rule demands it after je suis content que.
Why does "grand" come before the noun in "le plus grand changement"?
While most French adjectives come after the noun, short and common adjectives describing Beauty, Age, Number, Goodness, or Size (often remembered as BANGS) come before it. Since grand describes size, it goes before the noun, and its superlative form le plus grand (the biggest) stays right there with it.
Does "le parking" just mean "the parking" like in English?
