Questions & Answers about L'invité est censé proposer un toast.
Does censé change its spelling depending on the subject?
Do I need a preposition between censé and the infinitive proposer?
No, the construction is strictly être censé followed directly by an infinitive, with no preposition like de or à in between. The English word 'to' is already covered by the French infinitive form proposer.
I've seen the word sensé before. Is it interchangeable with the censé used in this sentence?
