"My employer is looking for a new accountant."

Translation: Mon employeuse cherche un nouveau comptable.

[fassstar]

Shouldn't it be "Ma employeuse ..." or "Mon employeur ..." but not "Mon employeuse ..."?

[Seattle_Scott]

When two vowels meet like that with a feminine noun, the ma becomes mon.

I had the same question as fasstar but your post offered some clarity! Thank you! Have a lingot!

Thank you. That is a great site that still works. I love the audio.

why then, is "mon employeur cherche un nouveau comptable" marked incorrect? (actually, I wrote "conptable" but I would have thought that would be marked a typo, which it actually was)

I have the same question as MichaelHaa. I get the two vowel thing, but why not mon employeur? 'Employeur' is shown as an acceptable translation, when you hover over 'Employer'
