Questions & Answers about La biologie est trop intéressante pour arrêter de l'étudier.
Why do we use pour before arrêter?
Why is there a de right after arrêter?
The verb arrêter (to stop) requires the preposition de when it is followed by another verb in the infinitive. To say 'stop doing something' in French, you must always use arrêter de, which is why we have arrêter de l'étudier here.
Why is the pronoun l' placed directly in front of étudier?
Why does the sentence start with La biologie and not just Biologie?
In French, when you talk about academic subjects, general concepts, or abstract ideas, you must always include a definite article (le, la, or les). English drops the 'the' for general subjects, but French requires La biologie.
