Sep 8, 2011 at 2:56 comment added Cerberus Ahh merci beaucoup! That makes sense. This is exactly what I was looking for. I had no idea the t came from te, very interesting.

Sep 8, 2011 at 2:51 comment added Dave @Cerberus: added a wikipedia citation that gives the origin of both "l" and "t".

Sep 8, 2011 at 2:44 comment added Cerberus Hah, qu'on sounds rather inappropriate indeed, never thought about that. Thanks for your explanation. Any reason why l was chosen instead of t, as in a-t-il? And is it never le in any other sentence, i.e. does it only ever occur before a vowel?
