Show transcript
[h] is silent in French, as in the word 'heure'.
Most French person nouns for jobs become feminine by adding -e, e.g. une avocate.
Person nouns already ending in -e stay the same, but the article changes, e.g. le → la secrétaire.
Masculine person nouns ending in -eur typically change to -rice in the feminine form.
The rules around job nouns are still changing and there are exceptions to the rules.
