Could you help me with this one i don't understand this
4. ------- frere a quel age?
Using the words and rewrite the sentence: ma, mon, mes, ta, ton, tes, sa, son, seu
Just looking at #4 with the blank there I have no idea WHOSE brother it is! There is no "cue" so it could be any one of:
mon (my), ton (your), son (his, her, its), notre (our), votre (your = formal singular or plural), son = their
Yes, son is all of these: his, her, its, their'
All I know is that "frère" is masculine and singular so I can not use: ma, ta, sa, etc. nor mes, tes, ses.
If you have any questions as you go along, STOP and ask!
Sra (aka Mme)
Sra (aka Mme)
To rewrite the sentence "------- frère a quel âge?" using the words you provided, we need to substitute the blank space with the appropriate possessive adjective.
The sentence structure looks like it is asking about someone's brother's age. Let's go through the possessive adjectives and see which one fits best:
1. "ma" is used when referring to something that belongs to the speaker (feminine)
2. "mon" is used when referring to something that belongs to the speaker (masculine)
3. "mes" is used when referring to something that belongs to the speaker (plural)
4. "ta" is used when referring to something that belongs to the person you're addressing (feminine)
5. "ton" is used when referring to something that belongs to the person you're addressing (masculine)
6. "tes" is used when referring to something that belongs to the person you're addressing (plural)
7. "sa" is used when referring to something that belongs to someone or something else (feminine)
8. "son" is used when referring to something that belongs to someone or something else (masculine)
9. "ses" is used when referring to something that belongs to someone or something else (plural)
Since we are talking about the age of someone's brother, and we don't know if the person we're referring to is male or female, we can use the gender-neutral "son" in this case.
So, the sentence would be rewritten as: "Son frère a quel âge?" (meaning "How old is his/her brother?")
