Most of French nouns take a –s at plural : Un livre / des livres. But there are some exceptions. Such as bijou whose plural form is bijoux with a –x. We’ll see about that later. Gentille is a feminine adjective. With a masculine noun, it'll become gentil. Ma maîtresse est très gentille
Le garçon est très gentil. |
|
Habiter : To live. Livre (masc.) : book. Bijoux (masc. plur.) : jewel, the jewellery. École (fém.) : school. Maîtresse (fém.) : primary school teacher. Très : very. Gentil, gentille : nice, sweet. Père : father. Bête : silly. |

they modify : 1. With a masculine and singular noun, we’ll use : mon. Mon père 2. With a feminine and singular noun, we’ll use : ma. Ma maîtresse |
