This is such a helpful resource for anyone struggling with French pronouns. (Especially those of us who can’t remember what we ate for breakfast this morning, much less grammar lessons we learned way back in elementary school—a really, really long time ago for oldsters like me!) I hate to muddy the waters further, but don’t forget that in cases where the word begins with a vowel sound, the pronouns revert to their masculine forms regardless of gender for pronunciation purposes—to resolve the glottal stop problem that French goes to desperate lengths to avoid. So “ma écharpe” becomes “mon écharpe”…(and son école, mon amie, ton idée, etc.)

Merci!!
Pronouns are a struggle and I'm always happy whenever I get one correct 😅
I know! Such a guessing game 🙈
