Verb: LACK
Our verb for the day is “lack”. Lack is different from “doesn’t have.” “Lack” means you have something but it is not enough. For example, “I don’t have money” means I have zero money but “I lack money” means I have money but it is not enough. Par exemple, je n'ai pas d'argent signifie que je n'ai pas d'argent mais je manque d'argent signifie que j'ai de l'argent mais qu'il n'est pas suffisant.
