Show transcript
Sound-symbol correspondences help us with spelling and pronunciation of new and familiar vocabulary. All nouns have a grammatical gender in French, masculine or feminine. The indefinite article is 'un' for masculine singular nouns, 'une' for feminine singular nouns and 'des' for plurals. The French definite articles are 'le, 'la', 'l''and 'les'. Use 'il y a' + indefinite article/number say what there is and 'il n' y a pas' + de/d' to say what there isn't.
