French Sentence Structure

In this lesson you will learn the proper word order for making sentences in French. The basic sentence structure is very similar to English: subject, verb, object.

For example, to say I eat a sandwich in French would say “Je mange un sandwich”. In this simple sentence Je is the subject (I), mange is the verb (eat) and “un sandwich” is the object.

Il adore son chien. (He loves his dog.)
Nous apprenons le Français. (we learn french.)
Le chat mange le poisson. (The cat eats fish.)
Tu bois un Coca-Cola. (You Drink a Coca-Cola.)
