i have to fill in the blanks with pronouns but im not sure which ones to use.
____________ et __________ s'écrivent depuis septembre.
Also with this sentence..... would the answer be toi?
toi, tu sais le faire, mais eux, ils ont besoin d'un coup de main. Mais je suis tellement pressé. Peux- _________ les aider?
Thanks for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum and to Writeacher who sent this to me! I missed it!
Because the verb "s'écrivent" says "they write to themselves" you have lots of options. Here are some:
Il et elle OR Ils OR 2 girls = Elles. The best choice? Either "Il et elle" OR "Ils et elles"
The 2nd one would be "tu" as inversion of a question, rather than the Stress Pronoun "toi." The reason the first word is "Toi" is for emphasis, that the statement is being addressed to "you."
The Stress Pronouns, or "Disjunctive Pronouns" are: moi, toi, lui, elle, nous, vous, eux, elles. They are used a) After a prepositiion, b) When the pronoun has no verb expressed, c) In a compound subject or object, d) For emphasis, e) After "ce + être" and f) With "-mêmew/mêmes" to xpress the English -self/-selves.
NOTE: Some French verbs take "à" with a disjunctive pronoun rather than in direct object. Among them are "penser à = to thin of," songer à = to think of and être à = to belong to, and reflexive expressions taking à, such as se fier à = to trust.
Sra (aka Mme)
To fill in the blanks with the appropriate pronouns, you need to determine the subject of the sentence. In this case, the subject is missing, represented by the blanks. To decide which pronouns to use, you can consider the following:
1. First, determine the number of subjects: Is it a singular or plural subject?
2. Second, consider the gender of the subjects: Are they male or female?
Without more information, it is difficult to determine which pronouns to use. However, I can suggest a few possibilities:
- If the subjects are singular and masculine, you could use "Il et il s'écrivent depuis septembre."
- If the subjects are singular and feminine, you could use "Elle et elle s'écrivent depuis septembre."
- If the subjects are plural and masculine, you could use "Ils et ils s'écrivent depuis septembre."
- If the subjects are plural and feminine, you could use "Elles et elles s'écrivent depuis septembre."
Ultimately, you need to know more details about the subjects of the sentence to accurately complete the blanks with the correct pronouns.
