Questions & Answers about Cet endroit est interminable et nous errons sans trouver la sortie.
Why is it cet endroit and not ce endroit?
Why does the sentence use the infinitive trouver after sans instead of an "-ing" equivalent like trouvant?
In English, we use the "-ing" form after prepositions ("without finding"). In French, prepositions like sans, pour, and de must always be followed by the infinitive (trouver). The only preposition that takes the "-ant" form in French is en.
What verb does errons come from?
It is the nous form of errer, which means "to wander" or "to roam". It is a regular -er verb, conjugated simply as nous errons in the present tense.
