French Grammar: Sentences | Verbs | Nouns | Adjectives | Prepositions | Adverbs

Articles before nouns are done in this way: (Notice that l' is used before vowels like in l'ami or l'oiseau)
a book => un livre
the book => le livre
some books => des livres
the books => les livres
a chair => une chaise
the chair => la chaise
some apples => des pommes

For the words this, that, these, those use ce, cet, cette, ces. For example,
this/that bed => ce lit (masculine noun)
this/that apple => cette pomme (feminine noun)
this/that bird => cet oiseau (note that bird begins w/a vowel)
these/those gloves => ces gants

Do not use un, une, or des to refer to someone's relition or profession.
