Why faire and not fais?
This question relates to:French lesson "Faire les courses vs Faire les magasins to talk about shopping (French Expressions with faire)"
Asked 5 years ago
Because le future proche (the near future tense) is formed by aller + infinitive.
Je vais faire le ménage.
Tu vas faire le ménage.
Il va faire le ménage.... and so on.
