french lesson 1 la famille

1. LA FAMILLE

GRAMMAIRE

1. LES ARTICLES

a. Les articles indéfinis

There are three of them. You can translate them as a/an. There is no indefinite article for plural nous in English.

Un – masc.sing.noun e.g. un chien – a dog, un stylo – a pen

Une – fem.sing.noun e.g. une fille – a girl, une maison – a house

Des – masc/fem plurals e.g. des stylos – pens, des maisons – houses

b. Les articles définis

There are four of them. All can be translated as ‘the’ in English.

Le – masc.sing.noun e.g. le chien – the dog

La – fem. Sing.noun e.g. la maison – the house

L’ – masc/fem sing noun starting with ‘a/e/i/o/u/h

Les – masc/fem plurals e.g. les stylos – the pens, les maisons – the houses

c. Les articles contractés

The ones which mean ‘ to the/at the/in the’

i) Au – masc.sing. noun e.g. au cinéma – to the cinema hall

ii) A la – fem sing noun e.g. à la plage – to the beach

iii) A l’ – masc/fem sing noun starting with a/e/i/o/u/h e.g. à l’école – to the school

iv) Aux – masc/fem plural nouns e.g. aux villes – to the cities

The ones which mean ‘of the/from the/about the’

ii) De la – fem. Sing.noun e.g. de la piscine – of the swimming pool

iii) De l’ – masc/fem sing. Noun starting with a/e/i/o/u/h e.g. de l’école – from the school

iv) Des – plural nouns e.g. des parents – about the parents

d. Les articles partitifs

There are four of them. They can be translated as ‘some’. They are used when fixed quantity of the noun is not given. Mostly used for food items. Usually verbs like ‘manger, boire, prendre, acheter’ are used in the sentence.

i) Du – masc.sing.noun e.g.du lait – some milk, du thé - some tea

ii) De la – fem.sing.noun e.g de la glace – some ice cream

iii) De l’ – masc/fem sing. Noun starting with a/e/i/o/h e.g. de l’eau – some water

iv) Des – masc/fem plural e.g. des fruits – some fruits

Please don’t get confused with les articles partitifs and les articles contractés as they look same. Look at the notes carefully, it is clear that their roles are different.

1st Group verbs: ER verbs - These are the verbs with last two letters as ER. They follow the same type of conjugation.

Examples: 1) tomber –to fall down

2) pleurer – to cry

3) raconter – to recite

4) aimer – to like

5) adorer – to love

6) détester – to hate

7) danser – to dance

8) chanter – to sing

9) regarder –to see

10) penser – to think

11) écouter – to listen

There are many more. Above just a few examples. When written in above form they are called infinitives or original verbs.

Now following is called the conjugation of the verb. Here is an example.

Regarder – to see

Je regarde – I see

Tu regardes – you see

Il regarde – he sees

Elle regarde – she sees

On regarde – everybody sees

Nous regardons – we see

Vous regardez – you see (plural, formal)

Ils regardent – they see

Elles regardent – they see (only fem subject)

GER & CER VERBS

1. Till here it is the revision as we already had ER verbs in 6^th class. There is a small group of GER verbs. So the last 3 letters we have to see.

e.g. 1) voyager –to travel

2) manger – to eat

3) nager – to swim

4) ranger – to arrange

Note that in above verbs last three letters are GER. The conjugation of these verbs is same as ER verbs except for NOUS. Let us write it.

Voyager – to travel

Je voyage – I travel

Tu voyages – you travel

Il voyage – he travels

Elle voyage – she travels

On voyage – everybody travels

Nous voyageons – we travel

Vous voyagez – you travel

Ils voyagent –they travel

Elles voyagent – they travel

Look at the conjugation of nous. It is different than other ER verbs. At the end it has ‘eons and other ER verbs have just ‘ons’.

2. Another small group of verbs is CER verbs. They have last three letters as cer.

e.g. 1) commencer – to start

2) avancer – to progress

3) placer – to place

Avancer – to progress

J’avance – I progress

Tu avances – you progress

Il avance – he progresses

Elle avance – she progresses

On avance – everybody progresses

Nous avançons – we progress

Vous avancez – you progress

Ils avancent – they progress

Elles avancent – they progress

Again look at the conjugation of Nous, it has ‘ç’ instead of ‘c’.

VOCABULAIRE

1) Le grand-père – grandfather

2) La grand-mère – grandmother

3) Les grands-parents – grandparents

4) Le père – father

5) La mère – mother

6) Le frère – brother

ENGLISH NOTEBOOK WORK_TEXTUAL ANSWERS OF THE ROAD NOT TAKEN

TEXTUAL ANSWERS THE ROAD NOT TAKEN

Page No: 16 Thinking about the poem

I. 1. Where does the traveller find himself? What problem does he face?

Ans: The traveller finds himself in the yellow woods at a point where the road forks into two.
The problem that he faces is that he cannot decide which road to take to continue his journey since it is not possible for him to travel both roads at the same time.

2. Discuss what these phrases mean to you.
(i) a yellow wood
(ii) it was grassy and wanted wear
(iii) the passing there
(iv) leaves no step had trodden black
(v) how way leads on to way

Ans: (i) Yellow wood symbolises the autumn season. Autumn corresponds with old age. The poet could be symbolically talking about the later stages of life.(ii) It conveys that the road was full of grass and nobody has used that road. It was a smooth road which had not worn out.(iii) The use of the path by passersby.(iv) The leaves had not changed their colour and turned black because of less people stepping on them. It could represent a path one may have never/seldom taken in life for the fear of uncertainty.(v) This phrase means how certain decisions one makes in life could pave the way for many other decisions.

3. Is there any difference between the two roads as the poet describes them
(i) in stanzas two and three?
(ii) in the last two lines of the poem?

Ans: (i) In stanza two the poet explains that the only difference between the two roads was that the road he took had the right to be chosen (the better claim) because it was covered with grass and looked as if it had not been used too much. Besides this difference, both roads had been equally worn down by passersby travelling on them.
In stanza three the poet says that both the roads were equally covered with leaves and that no person had stepped on.(ii) In the last two lines of the poem the poet says that there is a difference between the two roads because he took the road that was less travelled by other people and that made all the difference to his journey.

4. What do you think the last two lines of the poem mean? (Looking back, doesthe poet regret his choice or accept it?)

Ans: The last two lines of the poem mean the acceptance of reality. The poet made a choice and accepted the challenging path. He took and unexplored path in his life. He wanted to do something different in his life so he chooses the less travelled road. No he does not regret his choice.

II. 1. Have you ever had to make a difficult choice (or do you think you will have difficult choices to make)? How will you make the choice (for what reasons)?

Ans: No, till now I have never been in a situation in which I had to make a difficult choice. Perhaps I am still too young to make an independent choice. Yes, I think later or sooner I will have difficult choices to make. After completing my general education, I will have to make choice of profession whether I should become and engineer or doctor or something else. I will have hundreds of option before me. Then it will be difficult to make a choice in between them. I will make choice according to my capabilities and strong points at that time. I will choose a path that gives me satisfaction and mental peace. I will not join the rat race for money. Like the poet in poem, I will choose a challenging and unexplored path in my life.

2. After you have made a choice do you always think about what might have been, or do you accept the reality?

Ans: Taking a decision sometime make or mars our future. Having made a choice, I accept the reality. Reconsidering a decision or contemplating over it is not a positive approach towards life. Such thoughts never allow us to be happy with what we have gained from our decision. Therefore, I believe in sticking to my decisions.
