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.

"ce" as a subject pronoun is neuter (so functionally masculine singular)

ce/cet/cette/ces is NOT a subject pronoun, it is an adjective

"ce" as a subject pronoun only comes before « être » (and occasionally a couple other verbs, but être is the only main one, don't worry about the others)

ce/cet/cette/ces, being an adjective, comes before a noun

Ok so every time you’re saying “this is” it doesn’t matter it will be “c’est” right?

[uneven cedar]

Basically yeah

[young stump]

Okay so like “ce livre” “cette maison” “c’est ma maison”

And then what about ça, when do I use ça?

[uneven cedar]

Before other verbs

Or as an object

You can also use it before être if u want (if it starts with a consonant) it's just more informal

But I recommend preferring "ce" before être in general, especially if you're in school
