Le père marie sa fille. 2, record 1, French, - marier
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
La construction du verbe marier est une occasion fréquente de faute. Employé avec un complément direct, le verbe marier ne peut se dire que des parents par rapport aux enfants. Exemple : le père marie sa fille, c'est-à-dire qu'il la donne en mariage. Il est donc fautif d'employer transitivement le verbe marier au sens d'épouser. 2, record 1, French, - marier
