French term

sont

Non-PRO French to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
this is a sentence from a recent Paris Match article:

...accuse d'avoir viole et aggresse sexuellement certaines des jeunes joueuses sont il s'occupait.


The context seems to indicate the 'sont' means something like 'whom' - could you confirm this for me and also tell me what part of speech it is please?

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Typo Looks like a typo that should read "dont" instead of "sont"

agree Tony M : Yes, S and D are adjacent keys on the keyboard, and a spell-checker wouldn't have spotted this error, as both are valid words.
