I want to say "Yes, I obey my parents most of the time." in french.

is this right?

oui, j'ob¨¦is ¨¤ ma parents pour la plupart du temps.

my question is, do you have to put an ¨¤ before ma parents?

it should be MES parents (parents is plural.)

I would have put it this way:

"oui, j'obéis mes parents la plupart du temps."

Here is how to put it:

obéir à = to give obedience TO; therefore:

Oui, j'obéis à mes parents pour la plupart du temps.

Sra (aka Mme)

Oui, j'obéis à mes parents la plupart du temps

To say "Yes, I obey my parents most of the time" in French, the correct sentence would be:

"Oui, j'obéis à mes parents la plupart du temps."

In this sentence, there is no need to use "à" before "mes parents" because it already indicates possession and preposition "à" is not required in this context. However, it is crucial to use the plural form of the possessive pronoun "mes" to indicate multiple parents, rather than "ma" which refers to a singular possessive pronoun.

Remember, when expressing possession in French, singular possessive pronouns are used for singular nouns, and plural possessive pronouns are used for plural nouns. In this case, since "parents" is plural, you correctly used "mes" instead of "ma."

So, the correct sentence is:

"Oui, j'obéis à mes parents la plupart du temps."
