Questions & Answers about Le hasard change le score.

Why are there two les in Le hasard change le score?

Because French usually needs an article before both the subject noun and the object noun.

• le hasard = chance / luck / random chance
• le score = the score

So the sentence structure is:

• Le hasard = subject
• change = verb
• le score = direct object

English sometimes drops articles where French keeps them, especially with general or abstract ideas.

Why is it le hasard and not hasard by itself?

In French, nouns are very often used with an article. A bare noun is much less common than in English.

So French prefers:

• le hasard
• le score

rather than just hasard or score

This is one of the big habits English speakers need to get used to: French often sounds more complete when a noun has an article.

Is hasard masculine or feminine?

Hasard is masculine, which is why it takes le:

• le hasard

If it were feminine, it would take la.

You generally have to learn the gender along with the noun:

• hasard → masculine
• score → masculine

Why is the verb change and not something longer like ?
