"The child is calm."

Translation: L'enfant est calme.

[leahnpayne]

I wish they would give us more adjectives to learn besides calm and rich

[DJGulston]

Je suis d'accord!

[CgQ44P]

Je suis agree

[LydiaTsirigoti]

Well mabe they will give us later

[RavenclawPride]

What is the difference between le, la and l'

[Seanmhar]

Is it an error to say le enfant instead of l'enfant?

[Dahi_the_best]

Yes

[LydiaTsirigoti]

Thats what i wanted to no to

[Mahsa451918]

But what's the difference between l' and le?! I'm confused

[Yashee10]

I believe you write ‘l'’ infront of a word starting with vowel. And Le/La in front of masucline/feminine noun. But as I am still learning myself, I could be wrong.

[LucyLady2]

when do we use le/l'/un/une for anything?

[arpit36]

L' is used before a word that starts with a vowel
Le/un or la/une (the/a) before a masculine or feminine respectively

[RavenclawPride]

Le is for masculine,
l' is for when the letter after is a vowel,
la is femenine,
una is 'a' for masculine,
une is 'a' for femenine

[nancyntila]

They swallowed my L'

[GeoffThoma2]

Child could be either fem or masculine so I get the l' in that case. But what if you have specific feminine or masculine noun that starts with a vowel? Do you still use l'? Or do you use le/la?

[CgQ44P]

My answer was correct

[dejanradoj]

L'homme pronounce l'om

[dejanradoj]

Le garçon but l`enfant l'homme all for musculine.

[dejanradoj]

La femme, la fille, la robe for feminin.

[Damilola756051]

Please I'm a little confused as to why "l'enfant" is right and "le enfant" is wrong.

[Dolphinc10]

Because if it starts with a vowel it contracts to "l" e.g. "the man", "l'homme"

[teodoragaspar]

What is the difference between le, la and l'?
