etrange:


The correct possessive adjective to use here is "mon" simply because the noun begins with a vowel sound (even though it's a feminine noun).

Again, in France and Québec, we don't use "bon après-midi" as a form of greeting when we meet someone. We rather use it when parting ways after spending some time together. It's like the English expression "enjoy the rest of your day". We also use "bonne journee" in this sense depending on the time of the day.

For example, I might enter your office and say "bonjour !" and when I'm about to leave after our discussion, I'd say "bon apres-midi !" or "bon journee !" meaning "have a great afternoon!" or "enjoy the rest of your day!"
what of plural objects that begins with a vowel
e.g amis/amies, is it grammatical to use mes?
like mes amis/amies
or we should say mon amis/amies

Yes, mes amis/amies is correct.

Ogamysamo:

alright, a demain et se coucher ont *thesame*( etrange i'll appreciate correction) avec see you tomorrow.
wow

Hhmm... yes, but there are not exactly the same though. They both mean "to sleep". "Dormir" generally means "to sleep" (regardless of the time of day) while "se coucher" means "to go to bed" (mostly at night). "Coucher" can also have sexual connotations as in "voulez-vous coucher avec moi ce soir ?"

pas mal.[ etrange hope its grammatically acceptable]

"Pas mal" is correct.

Bonjour mon ami,,comment etait la nuit?

"Comment etait la nuit ?" is grammatical but it's not something you'd likely hear in France or Quebec. French people don't normally ask one another how the night/sleeping time (la nuit) was cause they believe you'd be sleeping or doing something very private at that time. Instead, they ask about late evening activities before bedtime (la soiree).

So your sentence is correct, but it might be more French to say "comment s'est passee ta soiree ?" if you must ask. smiley

C'etait bien passee, merci !
