<em><u>EXPLANATION</u></em><em> </em>
Possessive adjectives
In French they don't agree with who it belongs as in English.
It agrees with what is possessed
ex =
Tom's mother => his mother BUT in French => sa mère (une mère : fem. noun)
Kate's mother => her mother ----> in French => sa mère (it agrees with mother as above)
-
<u>french adjectifs possessifs</u>
- masc. sing. ==>mon, ton, son, notre, votre, leur
- fem. sing. ==> *ma, *ta, *sa, notre, votre, leur
- plural =====> mes, tes, ses, nos, vos, leurs
<em>IMPORTANT </em><em>(this an important rule)</em>
<em>*</em><u><em>but in front of a vowel, the feminine possessive adjectives ending with a vowel </em></u><em>(ma, ta, sa)</em><em> </em><u><em>are changing </em></u><u><em>(for a better sound as in English you don't say " a arm" or "a apple"but "an arm" , an apple"</em></u>
<u><em>fem. sing. possessive adjectives ending with a vowel when the following nouns begins with a vowel become</em></u><em> ==></em>
<u>mon, ton, son </u><em>("mon amie", "ton orange", son enfance" they are all feminine words beginning with a vowel</em><em> (plural doesn't change as all the possessive adjectives are ending with consonants)</em>
