What is the difference of english grammar to french grammar?

Question

does the composition of an english sentence differ with doing french sentence?

Answer 1

The biggest difference that I found while learning was the reversal of nouns/adjectives.  In English, we usually say the adjective before the noun (ex: a red apple), but in French, the say the noun first (ex: the apple red).

Answer 2

There's a big difference, since English has an Anglosaxon origin and French, like Italian (my language), has a Latin origin.

So English sentences are shorter and less difficult in grammar than the French ones!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

yep french also associates gender to their nouns- masc and fem in english we dont have that.

Answer 4

When translating form English to French, expect the length of the prose to increase by about a third.

English does not use genders for nouns. Hooray!

English is a very rich language because of "phrasal verbs", where by changing the preposition, you can completely change the sense of the phrase.

To do down - to disadvantage someone

To do up - to renovate

To do in (slang) - hurt someone

To do out - to cheat someone of something

To do with -to need something

etc.

There is also the etymology of English, partly derived from Norse, Saxon, Latin and French as well.
