For each question, choose from the options lettered A-E, the most appropriate one to complete the sentenceJ'ai vu_____professeurs.
Answer Details
In the sentence "J'ai vu_____professeurs," the blank requires you to choose the correct possessive adjective that agrees with the noun "professeurs" in both gender and number.
The noun "professeurs" is plural. In French, possessive adjectives must match the noun they refer to in number and, where applicable, gender. Let's analyze each option:
leur: This is a possessive adjective used for "their" when referring to a plural noun. It is the correct choice because it agrees with the plural noun "professeurs." Therefore, "J'ai vu leur professeurs" means "I have seen their teachers."
nos: This means "our" in French and is also used with plural nouns. Although it agrees in number with "professeurs," it changes the ownership to "our," which does not probably fit the context unless specified in the full sentence context.
tes: This means "your" in the informal singular form and is used with plural nouns. While it also agrees in number, it changes the relationship of possession to "your" and does not seem fitting without context.
ton: This means "your" in the informal singular form but is used with singular masculine nouns. It does not agree in number with "professeurs" and is thus incorrect.
In conclusion, the most appropriate possessive adjective to complete the sentence "J'ai vu_____professeurs" is "leur."
