Hello, everybody!
Is there any expression in English similar to "fazer questão (de)..."?
"Faço questão (de) que você venha à minha festa hoje à noite"
"_Quer uma carona pra casa? _Não quero incomodar... _Imagine! Faço questão!"
In Portuguese, we use the expression "fazer questão de ..." when we want to emphasize how much we appreciate to do something or how much we'd like someone to do something, because it's a great pleasure for us.
Thank you!!
:-)
