Nov 6, 2015 at 4:20 | comment | added | user3177 | @PapaPoule You could make it a full-fledged question after checking there is no duplicate. It's interesting and there is an answer to that, which is close to your first observation and enables your Robert's stance on it at the same time. Thanks! | |
Nov 5, 2015 at 15:43 | comment | added | Papa Poule | Based on the hits that I get with Google (4060 for "Je m'identifie à eux" & just 9 for “Je m'identifie avec eux"), you are clearly correct (to my satisfaction) that “avec” would be wrong in this case (+1 for that important observation). My “Le Robert-Micro,” however, gives an example of an actor identifying with his character using “avec” (Acteur qui s’identifie avec son personage); so (if you don’t mind taking the time to answer) are there any particular reasons to explain why “avec” would be wrong in this case that distinguish it from the example given by “Le Robert”? Thanks! | |
