1 L’echauffement: conjugate “aller”
Je vais Tu vas Il va Elle va Nous allons Vous allez Ils vont Elles vont

2 Learning Target: Today I am learning the French articles because I need to know masculin, feminin and plural.

3 le, la, l’, les=definite articles un, une, des= indefinite articles
French articles le, la, l’, les=definite articles un, une, des= indefinite articles

4 le, la, l’, les (definite articles)
What do these words mean? These words all mean the. So how do you know which one to use?????

5 Notes (grammar section) Les articles
Les articles définis: Definite articles. They refer to something definite. le (m. sing.) la (f. sing.) l’ (m/f + vowel) les - (m/f pl.) THE

6 Well, first of all, if the noun is plural, there is only one possibility:
les For example, to say the teachers you would say: les professeurs.

7 If your noun is singular (that means you’re talking about only one thing), then you have to choose from le, la, l’ .

8 Your choice of definite article depends on the gender of the noun that follows.
In French, every noun has a gender—it is either masculine or feminine. In order to choose between le or la, you have to know the gender of the noun.

9 For example, the noun boisson (drink) is feminine.
If you want to say the drink you would say: la boisson.

10 Since garÇon (boy) is masculine, how would you say the boy?
le garcon Fantastique!

11 Reminder about plurals…
But what if the noun is plural? For example, frites (fries). How would I say the fries? les frites (You can see that if a noun is plural, you don’t really need to know if it’s masculine or feminine in order to choose the correct article.)

12 So when do we use l’ ? See if you can figure out the rule: l’oignon (m) = the onion l’agrafeuse (f) = the stapler l’école (f) = the school What do these words have in common?

13 That’s right!! They all start with a vowel AND they are singular.
Sooooo, l’ is used to mean the in front of a masculine or feminine noun starting with a vowel.

14 Révision 1. _____ livre (m) = the book le
2. _____ garcon (m) = the boy 3. _____ fille (f) = the girl 4. _____boissons (f) = the drinks 5. _____oignons (m) = the onions 6. _____ ordinateurs (m) = the computer 7._____ amie (f)= the friend le le la les les les L’

15 Vous êtes très intelligents!
So let’s move on to indefinite articles…

16 A, AN, SOME Les articles indefinis: indefinite articles
They refer to something unspecific. (Anyone will do.) un (m. sing) une - (f. sing) des - (m/f pl.) A, AN, SOME

17 Indefinite articles un, une & des are indefinite articles.
(They don’t refer to any specific item— any one will do.) Do you know what they mean? un livre = a book une portion = a serving des frites = some fries

18 un, une, des Which one is used in front of a masculine singular noun?
Which one is used in front of a feminine singular noun? une

19 So now I bet you can guess when to use des (some).
That’s right! In front of a plural noun— either masculine or feminine!
