(qui - que - ou - Quelle)

Answer 1

Bonjour Diyaa,

I hope you're doing well. I've explained the correct answers, below.

1. Quelle couleur tu préfères? ~ You must use quelle because couleur is both feminine and singular.
2. Je n'ai pas d'amis en classe. ~ You must use d' because all indefinite articles (du, de la, de l', des) become de/d' in the negative.
3. Où est ton emploi de temps? ~ You must use où because it means where. Que and qui would not make sense and quelle (fem. singular) is impossible because emploi de temps is masculine.

Answer 2

Hi!

Please, find some tips and strategies to answer these types of questions, as well as the correct answers you need:

Here is how to find your answers for questions 1 and 3:

Step 1: When asking the questions "what, which.." you need to identify which word in the question you are asking about: In number 1, you are asking about the color, in number 3, you are asking about your schedule.

Step 2: when you have identified your focus word, you need to check if it's feminine or masculine, and singular or plural

Step 3: match your findings with the correct spelling: Quel =masc, sing / Quelle = fem, sing / quels = masc, plur / Quelles = fem, plural.

So you should come up with "quelle" in number 1 and "quel" in number 3.

For question 2: similar reasoning as above:

Step 1= identify your focus word: amis ( friends)

It is plural so you can eliminate du which is singular.

Step 2= identify the type of statement

it is a negative statement so you can eliminate 'des' which is only for positive statments

Step 3= identify the first letter of the world" it is a vowel so you eliminate "de" which is only in front of consonants

correct answer is " d' "
