Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

"mez" did'nt exist maybe you mean "mes"

bright scaffold
#

ok lets start from the beginning
JE - Subject
Me - Me (action done to whom)

  • Tu ME donne: You give ME
    Moi - Me (After preposition/Response "me")
  • Tu donne les clés À MOI: You give the keys TO ME
  • Moi? - Me?
#

Now possesive

#

as in 'my'

#

now in french there are subjects according to gender

#

thus the gender of the word corrisponds to which 'my' you use

#

Mon - Masculine Singular (Mon café), Feminine vowel (Mon amiE)
Ma - Feminine Singular (Ma voiture)
Mes - Plural regardless of gender (Mes cafés, mes voitures)

#

Now with 'mez', I think you are thinking of 'mes' but with liason, the act of pronouncing the supposedly unpronounced letter of the last word, BECAUSE the next word is a vowel

#

for example

#

meS Amis would sound like "mezami"

#

now some french people joke around with this with making it "Mes zamis" (allowing it to be pronounced 'mezami' anyways) but leave that for now

#

@vivid flume hope this helps

#

Also, « moi » is a tonic pronoun which is basically for calling out someone as flutters said. In French, you can repeat a subject's tonic pronoun for emphasis.

#

« Qu'est-ce que tu penses de lui, toi ? (What do you think of him?) »
