Doit aboutir Explanation: Nela: Shall = doit, car c'est requis terminate = raccorder, le contexte est probablement que le conduit n'est pas clos, mais ouvert et abouti à l'extérieur à cet endroit. Une autre suggestion est "doit se raccorder", si le conduit se raccorde à quelque chose à cet endroit. Bonne chance, Marc Le grand dictionnaire terminologique |

doit aboutir Explanation: I agree with the use of "doit" for the translation of "shall". The English "shall" is used in instructions (and in legal docuemtns) to indicate an obligation. In such contexts, French uses the present indicative of "devoir", here "doit". Nikki |
