10 Inversion In a more formal context and in written French, you will often see questions formed with inversion. To make a question with inversion, simply reverse, or invert, the subject and verb and add a hyphen between them. Tu vas à la banque? Vas-tu à la banque? Vous faites du ski? _____________________ Tu regardes la télé? _____________________

11 Inversion If you’re inverting a question with il, elle or on as the subject, and the verb ends in a vowel, add a -t- between the verb and subject. The -t- has no meaning and only serves to make the pronunciation easier. Il y a deux chaises là? Y a-t-il deux chaises là? Elle parle espagnol? ____________________ Il mange un sandwich? ____________________ On va au parc? ____________________

12 Inversion Notice how you form inversion questions if the subject is a noun. (Eliminate est-ce que, keep the noun, add the subject pronoun and invert with the verb) Est-ce que Janine vient avec nous? Janine vient-elle avec nous? Un cours sans prof est possible? Un cours sans prof ___________ possible?

13 Inversion Information questions follow the same rules as yes-no questions. Always put the question word at the beginning, remember to drop est-ce que if it was there in the original question. Où vous allez? Où allez-vous? A quelle heure est-ce qu’on attend le bus? _______________________________________

14 Inversion To make an inversion question in the passé composé , reverse the subject and the helping verb (être or avoir). Tu as trouvé un plan de la ville? As-tu trouvé un plan de la ville? Tu es allé au cinéma? _____________________________________

15 Partitive When you’re talking about part of an item, use the partitive articles du, de la, de l’, des before the noun. Je voudrais ______ pain. Je voudrais ______ quiche. Je voudrais ______ omelette. Je voudrais ______ oeufs.

16 Partitive When you’re talking about a whole item or items, use un, une, des before the noun. Je mange _____ quiche. (a whole quiche) Je bois _____ coca. ( a whole coke) Je mange ______ fraises. (some whole strawberries)

17 Partitive In a negative sentence, the partitive and indefinite articles become de/d’. Je ne voudrais pas ______ pain. Je ne voudrais pas ______ quiche. Je ne voudrais pas ______ omelette. Je ne voudrais pas ______ oeufs. Je ne mange pas _____ quiche. Je ne bois pas _____ coca. Je ne mange pas ______ fraises.
