CAS LF 211 Study Guide - Quiz Guide: Personal Pronoun, Chapter 27
Document Summary
Now listen to the following sentences and decide if they are singular or plural, circle the sentence you hear. On" is like the english personal pronoun one". We"d rather use people" or the impersonal pronoun you" (e. g. , to succeed you need to work) In france, (one speaks) / people speak french - en france, on parle fran ais. At school, (one writes) / you write a lot - l" cole, on crit beaucoup. In france, (one eats) / people eat well - en france, on mange bien. On, therefore has an impersonal meaning but it is also used as a substitute for the personal pronoun nous" : Nous partons demain = on part demain. We"ve seen both the negative form for a verb & the unstable e". The rule of pronunciation of the unstable e" goes as follow. If the syllable preceding an unstable e" ends with a vowel sound the unstable e" is not pronounced.
