Show transcript
The verb 'avoir' means 'to have'. 'J'ai', 'tu as', 'il a' and 'elle a' are its singular forms. 'Nous avons' and 'vous avez' are plural forms of the verb 'avoir' meaning 'we have' and 'you have'. 'Ils ont' (mpl/mfpl) and 'elles ont' (fpl) mean 'they have'. In French, many adjectives go after the noun they describe: un ordinateur lent. Some adjectives go before the noun in French (prenominal adjectives) that refer to beauty, age, good/bad or size (BAGS).
