Two questions about this exercise

Suzanne D.B2Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

Is it also OK to say:
Il on a besoin avoir du bois sec as we as il faut avoir du bois sec.

SEC is one syllable - I thought one syllable adjectives went before the noun?

Chris W.C1 Kwiziq Q&A super contributor Correct answer

On a besoin d'avoir du bois sec. -- We need dry wood.
Il faut avoir du bois sec. -- We/one must have dry wood.

Both express the same thing but in a different way. The first one expresses a direct need, whereas the second one is more of a general requirement.
