The Possessive Adjectives MON, MA and MES…

Just like the adjectives we saw last week had to match up with the person they were
describing, the same rule applies to “possessive adjectives.”

Let’s see how these work:

C’est Sophie. Elle est intelligente. Elle est ma soeur.

C’est Lucas. Il est amusant. Il est mon cousin.

Mon père est grand. Ma mère est belle. Mes parents sont américains.

Les Adjectifs Possessifs

_{Possessive Adjectives}

• Possessive adjectives are used to show possession or ownership of something. While we use them when we refer to people, it is more in the sense of relationship than ownership.

The Norman Conquest

The real transformation of English — which started the process of turning it into the language we speak today — came with the arrival of William the Conqueror from Normandy, in today’s France. The French that William and his nobles spoke eventually developed into a separate dialect, Anglo-Norman. Anglo-Norman became the language of the medieval elite. It contributed around 10,000 words, many still used today. In some cases, Norman words ousted the Old English words.
