Hacer falta

Hacer falta

Hola,

Is it always hace falta, or again is it subject dependent?

If I wanted to say 'we need to sand the furniture' do we say 'hacen falta lijar los muebles' as muebles is plural?

Gracias,

Hola Stuart,

From my understanding (however, I might be wrong) it is dependent on what is necessary. In this case, only one thing is necessary (sanding) so it remains hace falta lijar los muebles.

(NB, I know my level says A1, but this is not correct

« So can dans be replaced with apres to mean the same thing here?'mange du pain' vs 'mange le pain' »
