In French, indefinite articles are small words that mean "a," "an," or "some" in English. They are used when referring to something non-specific.
There are three main indefinite articles in French:
Article | Used before | Examples |
---|---|---|
Un | singular masculine noun | un chien (a dog) |
Une | singular feminine noun | une pomme (an apple) |
Des | plural nouns (masculine or feminine) | des chiens (some dogs), des pommes (some apples) |
