different between avoir vs ausa

French

Alternative forms

• havoir

Etymology

From Middle French avoir, from Old French avoir, aveir, aver, from Latin habe? (“have, hold, possess”), probably from a Proto-Italic *hab?? or *ha???, possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *g?h?b?- (“to grab, to take”). Influenced and reinforced by similar (yet etymologically unrelated) verbs in Germanic; compare Frankish *hab?n, Frankish *heb?n (“to have”), Gothic ???????????????????? (haban, “to have”).

Usage notes

Avoir is often used with nouns like chaud (“heat”), faim (“hunger”), soif (“thirst”), peur (“fear”), etc. to express a personal condition or feeling, as shown in examples above. While constructions like être affamé (“to be starving/starved”) and être assoiffé (“to be thirsty”) exist, they are almost always used figuratively. It is always more natural to use avoir rather than être in the examples listed above, and other similar cases. In some cases, both verbs can be used, but with vastly different meanings:
