Questions & Answers about Utiliser le câble fourni avec la notice.
Why is the verb Utiliser in the infinitive instead of the imperative form Utilisez?
If the manual wanted to say 'Do not use,' how would we make this infinitive command negative?
Is fourni acting as an adjective here?
I thought notice meant a warning or a sign. Why does it translate to 'manual' here?
Une notice is a false friend! While it looks like the English word 'notice', in French it refers to a user manual, an instruction leaflet, or a technical specification sheet. An English notice posted on a wall would instead be un écriteau or un panneau, and a warning would be un avertissement.
