how to say the verb conquer in french

Answer 1

I think that they are all fine, although I can't give you an absolute guarantee.  They all translate well, Conquer is Conquérir

Answer 2

I just want to say that i haven't opened a grammar book to answer you so I may be wrong...but I'm pretty sure that is not totally wrong however. ;)

In fact, you can use "d'où" et "dont" but they have different meanings.

- d'où is for a movement :

"Le pays d'où je viens" is correct --> it means you come from that country (venir is for a movement)

"Le pays d'où je suis issu" is not correct (être is a state verb, no movement)

- dont is for (a kind of ) possession (as a country can't belong to you)

"Le pays d'où je suis issu" is not correct

"Le pays dont je suis issu" is correct --> it means your roots are in this country (i.e your country)

Duquel doesn't really sound good to me in this specific case so i won't use it.

Answer 3

c'est le pays d'où je viens

c'est le pays dont je suis issu

c'est le pays duquel est issue ma famille

conquérir

Answer 4

C'est le pays d'où je viens.

To conquer : conquérir.

Answer 5

C'est le pays dont je suis originaire.

I'm french speaker

Answer 6

You can say either "C'est le pays d'où/duquel je viens", both are grammatically correct, although "d'où" would be the most used.

The second sentence would not be used.

And conquer in French is conquérir.
