French
Bonjour! Today we are going to learn how to say 'a' for singular nouns and 'some' for plural nouns. For example, in English, this would be: A rabbit = 1 rabbit. Some rabbits = more than one rabbit.
Then we’ll do 'the' for singular and plural nouns, using the same animal vocabulary as we learnt last week. Eg the horse= 1 horse. The horses = more than one. The words you’ll learn today are called articles and they change in French depending on whether the noun is masculine or feminine, singular or plural.
|
Article |
Masculine singular |
Feminine singular |
Plural (masculine and feminine are the same) |
|
A
|
Un (un) |
Une (oon) |
Des (day) = some |
|
The
|
Le (luh) |
La (la) |
Les (lay) |

Download lesson 17 with audio.
Work through the Powerpoint, clicking on whether you think it is un or une or des; le or la or les. The lady will say Tant pis! Never mind! if you make a mistake.
Once you’ve worked through, write the date in French in your book – mardi deux mars and the learning objective Can I translate un, une, des, le ,la, les into English?
Using slide 20, copy the French and translate it into English. Once you’ve tried the first 5, check your answers before moving on to slide 21. Check your answers again and correct them if you’ve made a mistake. If you like, there are 5 more on slide 22!
I hope you understand. We will go back over this in school if you’re a bit unsure.
Here’s an animal song to finish.
