Many French verbs require a specific preposition in front of a noun or infinitive. The choice of preposition depends on the verb before it, not whatever comes after, and there’s no shortcut or trick to learning these – you just have to memorize each list.
- Verbs that require Ã
- Verbs that require contre
- Verbs that require dans
- Verbs that require de
- Verbs that require en
- Verbs that require par
- Verbs that require pour
- Verbs that require sur
- Verbs with à and / or de
On the other hand, some French verbs don’t require a preposition – even when one is needed in the English equivalent: Verbs without prepositions
