Homework Help: French

Posted by RC on Tuesday, September 15, 2009 at 12:34am.

I know that the definite article is normally used when discussing parts of the body, but I have oftentimes seen possessive adjectives with parts of the body while reading. Why is this? Is it just done for clarification? Thanks!
