Grammar & Structure Pronouns

Usage Note

Ma is the feminine 'my', the partner of masculine mon and plural mes. It hides inside the term of endearment ma chérie, and before a feminine noun starting with a vowel it politely steps aside for mon, giving mon idée and never ma idée.

Examples

"Ma sœur est médecin."

Natural Translation

My sister is a doctor.
