Question 1 • French 1 - WL9611 B

Choose the best translation of the following sentenceI never talk to my brother in law.

Answer
A
Jamais, je ne parle à mon beau-frère.
B
Je ne parle jamais à mon beau-frère.

Explanation

In French, jamais usually goes after the conjugated verb in a negative sentence: ne parle jamais. So “Je ne parle jamais à mon beau-frère” means “I never talk to my brother-in-law.” Putting “Jamais” at the start, as in A, is possible for emphasis, but B is the standard, natural word order.
