Dans_____ ville est-ce que Vous habitez?

The phrase "Dans_____ ville est-ce que Vous habitez?" requires selecting the correct word from the given options: "quell," "quelles," "quelle," and "que." Let’s break down each option to understand the appropriate choice:

1. Quelle:

This word is the correct choice. In French, "quelle" is the feminine singular form of the word "which." It is used to ask about a specific item when the noun it refers to is feminine and singular. Since "ville" (meaning "city" or "town") is a feminine singular noun, the pronoun and article that accompany it must also be in the feminine singular form. Therefore, the correct question would be "Dans quelle ville est-ce que Vous habitez?" which translates to "In which city do you live?"

2. Quell:

This option is not a valid French word. It appears to be missing the appropriate ending required to agree grammatically with the noun "ville." The correct form for a masculine singular noun would be "quel," but since "ville" is feminine, "quelle" is the correct choice.

3. Quelles:

This word is the feminine plural form and is used when referring to multiple feminine nouns. Since "ville" is singular, using "quelles" would be incorrect in this context.

4. Que:

This term translates to "what" in English and does not agree with the noun it modifies in terms of gender or number. It does not fit the structure of the sentence when asking "in which city." It is not the correct choice for this context.

Therefore, the correct choice is "quelle." The full sentence reads correctly as, "Dans quelle ville est-ce que Vous habitez?"
