Should the title include the word "de" (faire exprès de)? Right now it just shows faire exprès. Thank you.
Maybe the title should include "de" i.e., faire exprès (de)?

Maybe the title should include "de" i.e., faire exprès (de)?
This question relates to:French lesson "Faire exprès (de) = To do something on purpose (French Expressions with faire)"
Asked 5 years ago

Hi Robin,
The lesson includes both the stand-alone expression -
faire ( quelque chose) exprès
as in -
Tu l'as fait exprès = You did it on purpose
and
'faire exprès de faire quelque chose'
when it is followed by another verb in French
Nous avons fait exprès de casser le vase = We broke the vase on purpose
