Subjonctif in B1?

Subjonctif in B1?

Nous en avons. - Ayons-en

Start of B1.. I have not met ayons before. My Larousse says it is le subjonctif which looks a bit way off in the future!

Right.. I see that it is the imperative avoir as well but still seems a bit steep for my second Kwiz in B1 when it has not come up in a leçon!

Hi Mark, 

In this case as you rightly point out it is not the subjunctive but the imperative of 'avoir'. Take a look at the following lesson highlighting the verbs which are irregular in their imperative -

Conjugate irregular être/avoir/savoir in the imperative mood in French (L'Impératif)

Vouloir is another one -

Conjugate vouloir in the imperative mood in French (L'Impératif)

Hope that helps!
