How many different verbs in English can be used to translate faire in french?

Answer 1

This question gives a glimpse of what infinity could be...

The real question should be how many uses of "faire" there are.

The main translations of "faire" are "to do" (or "to act") and "to make".

It can also mean "to play" (faire le mariole, faire de la musique, faire du sport).

"to rule" (faire la pluie et le beau temps)

"to care" (faire attention, faire gaffe)

"to defecate" (faire dans son pantalon)

"to ride" (faire du cheval)

"to cycle" (faire du vélo)

"to delude oneself" (se faire des illusions)

"to worry" (se faire des soucis, se faire du mouron)

"to run away" (faire une fugue)

"to ignore" (faire l'autruche)

And dozens more, since "faire" is a rather neutral verb that mostly takes the meaning of the noun or verb that follows, adding an extra action cause to it. For instance, "faire" + "plaisir" (pleasure) means "to please", "to give pleasure", "faire" + "tomber" (to fall down) means to make someone or something fall down.
