Word of the day

Bonjour à tous!

Today's word of the day is "besoin" which translates to "need". This word originates from Middle French, Old French besoing; can be seen as a masculine variant of besogne, from Old French besonge, from Old Frankish bisunnija, from sunnijōn (“to look after”)  hence a possible origin for the french word soigner, possibly through a Vulgar Latin intermediate bisonium. 

Can you use it in a sentence? Mais bien sûr!

Stephanie avait raison...j'ai besoin de quelqu'un. J'ai besoin de quelqu'un qui pourra m'aimer et me protéger des maux du monde. 

Translation? Of course!
Stephanie was right... I need someone. I need someone who can love me and protect me from the evils of the world.
