Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

"il est à souhaiter que" is a bit old fashioned, but 100% correct.

"il est souhaitable que" would be a more common alternative.

🙏 merci

would the ne expletif be used at all here?

[hard yacht]

What's the context? "It is hoped that..." strikes me as a bit odd too

[hard yacht]

No, this wouldn't be a case where you can use the ne explétif

[oak willow]

il est souhaitable que tu le fusse bien

would this also be a correct translation?

[oak willow]

"i have assigned you x task, it is hoped that you do it properly"

[hard yacht]

"Il est souhaitable que tu le fasses bien" would work, yes.

oh whoops wrong conjugation
