  ➔ Verb "rendre" + Adjective (causative)

  ➔ "me rend flexible": The verb "rendre" (to make/render) followed by a direct object pronoun ("me" - me) and an adjective ("flexible") means "makes me flexible." This structure indicates that the subject (Monnaie - money) causes the direct object to become or be in a certain state.
