Vocabulary and transcripts for this lessons
Key learning points
- There are 4 ways to turn a masculine noun into a feminine noun: add an e, change article, -n to -nne, -eur to -rice.
- If a masculine noun ends in -e, there's no change for feminine; if it ends in -s or -x, there's no change for plural.
- We usually make nouns plural by adding -s. Nouns ending in -eu, -(e)au, or -al make their plurals with -x.
Keywords
Noun - word for a person, place or thing
Common misconception
All masculine nouns are made feminine by adding 'e' and plural by adding 's'.
A masculine noun can be made feminine by changing the article, adding 'e', changing 'eur' to 'ice' or 'n' to 'nne'. Nouns can be made plural by adding 's' or 'aux'. Nouns ending in 's' or 'x' don't have a plural form.
