What does the French word, "la" mean in English?

Question

Is it the feminine form of a name/word or "the?"

Answer 1

"la" means "the" in english. It's the feminine form, so you put it before a femimine noun. "Le" is the masculine form, "Les" is the plural form, and "L' " goes before nouns that start with a vowel. Der rien :D

Answer 2

La, in french, is the same as the word "the" in English

Answer 5

Like posters before me said, La is The in English. La is also a personal direct object (feminine, singular). For example, I hid her under the table. Je la cachais sous la table. The first "la" is a personal direct object; the second "la" is the article other posters referred to.

Answer 6

the
except it is the feminine fersion of the but it doesnt really matter in english because we dont classify objects into genders
le would be masculine

ok so in french you would say the bookstore la librairie so la is the feminine form of the. different words in french are either feminine or masculine, so you use the terms le and la accordingly.

Answer 7

It means "the", and the following noun has a feminine origin. "Le" is the same, but masculine. C'est la Vie.

Answer 8

You probably mean "marche" with a C, not an S. It can have several meanings, but in that particluar context (ça marce!) it means "It works". The artcile recommends that your try their product. "Take it! It works!"

Answer 9

The

Answer 10
