Laisser vs déposer?
This question relates to:French writing exercise "Christmas in the mountains"
Asked 2 years ago
Hi Ethan,
In the case of a car as in this text, you couldn't use 'déposer' which is used for small items.
J'ai déposé un paquet à la poste = I dropped a parcel off at the post office
Hope this helps!

Hi Ethan,
I think that using laisser would be the most appropriate verb in this context, although both laisser and déposer take abandonner as a strong synonym.

Hope this helps.
