"You have to save up to go to college."

Translation: Tu dois économiser pour aller à l'université.

[Peter349z]

College dose not necessarily mean university in British English

[PATRICKPIZ1]

and 'à l'université' is non-specific. it refers to colleges and universities. it is a set phrase.

[Calafia77]

Yes they think using college works for us and it doesn't because we know they are not the same as university.

[SamanthaPa392326]

Will someone please explain how we determine when to use il faut or tu dois

[PATRICKPIZ1]

this may help. https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/devoir-vs-falloir/

[nestarees]

tu dois economiser pour aller au college - surely this is correct, unless I've made an error I can't see? I've reported it in case I'm right.

[Paul950310]

Can this be rewritten starting with "Il faut" ?

[PATRICKPIZ1]

yes. falloir implies a necessity and saving for school is that.
(i used 'il faut' when i redid this section and it was accepted)

[flo486620]

"tu dois épargner" devrait être accepté

[Frederick_W_V]

Why is 'fac' not accepted, but is demanded elsewhere?

[Grammy_rainbow]

What's wrong with this?
vous devez économiser pour allez à l'université

[LindaMundy1]

Pour aller.

[iangrosser]

il faut d'economiser pour aller a l'universite not accepted.

[dinghao42]

Yes, ' il faut ' and ' doivre ' both imply ' necessity '. Also, ' au = à le ( masc. ) ' and ' à la = ( fem. ). Thus, à l'université ( ie. when there are two vowels in succession contractions are used ).
