Question

question 9 of 10
choose the appropriate pair of verb forms to fill in the blanks: elles ____ françaises mais je ____ américain.
a. sommes/suis
b. sont/sommes
c. suis/es
d. sont/suis

Explanation:

This tests conjugation of the French verb "être" (to be).

1. The subject "Elles" (they, feminine plural) uses the third-person plural form "sont".
2. The subject "je" (I) uses the first-person singular form "suis".

Matching these forms to the options gives the correct pair.

Answer:

D. sont/suis
