Questions & Answers about Avui fa vent i fa fred.
Yes, fa is the 3rd person singular of fer, which often means to do or to make. But in Catalan, fer is also used in many weather expressions.
So:
- fa fred = it is cold
- fa calor = it is hot
- fa vent = it is windy
- fa sol = it is sunny
This is just the normal Catalan pattern for talking about weather.
Because fa vent and fa fred are two separate weather expressions, and Catalan normally keeps fa with each one.
So Catalan naturally says:
- Avui fa vent i fa fred
That sounds more complete and idiomatic than trying to share one fa across both parts. English often avoids repetition, but Catalan is happy to repeat the verb here.
