Leçon 4 : Les noms, les articles et le verbe « Have »
Today, we’ll learn about nouns, articles, and the verb have.
Aujourd’hui, nous allons apprendre ce que sont les noms, les articles et le verbe have.
Articles in English
Les articles en anglais
There are three main articles: a, an, and the.
Il y a trois articles principaux : a, an et the.
A is used before words that begin with a consonant sound:
A s’utilise devant les mots qui commencent par un son consonne :
→ a cat, a dog, a university
→ a cat (chat), a dog (chien), a university (université)
An is used before words that begin with a vowel sound:
An s’utilise devant les mots qui commencent par un son voyelle :
→ an apple, an egg, an hour
→ an apple (pomme), an egg (œuf), an hour (heure)
The is used for something specific or already known:
The s’utilise pour désigner quelque chose de spécifique ou déjà connu :
→ the Sun, the Simpsons, the United States, the Alps
→ the Sun (le Soleil), the Simpsons (les Simpsons), the United States (les États-Unis), the Alps (les Alpes)
Practice:
Pratique :
“Give me a pen” → any pen, not specific.
« Give me a pen » — donne-moi un stylo (n’importe lequel, pas spécifique).
“Give me the pen” → a specific pen, already known.
« Give me the pen » — donne-moi le stylo (spécifique, déjà connu).
In short:
En résumé :
A / An = something general or new
A / An = quelque chose de général ou de nouveau
The = something specific or already mentioned
The = quelque chose de spécifique ou déjà mentionné
