Do you mean, "hace falta comer" or "il faut s'alimenter"? The difference is between obligation and necessity (or a want of something). https://www.thoughtco.com/expressing-obligation-spanish-3079893 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKFTh4tly38 There are instances where there is no difference in meaning: tenemos que ir rápido hace falta ir rápido

I don't know if Gene is still with you, but that was a brilliant suggestion to watch the youtube video.  I just watched it and it gives a really good sense of this subject. Well done. Nicole
