Il manger
Explanation The given correct answer "il mange" is the correct conjugation of the verb "manger" in the third person singular form. In French, verbs change their endings depending on the subject pronoun. "Il" is the subject pronoun for the third person singular form, and "mange" is the corresponding conjugation of the verb "manger". Therefore, "il mange" translates to "he eats" or "he is eating" in English.

Vous chanter
Explanation The correct answer is "vous chantez." In French, "vous" is the formal second person plural pronoun, which is used to address a group of people or to show respect to an individual. The verb "chanter" means "to sing" and in this case, it is conjugated to match the subject "vous." Therefore, "vous chantez" translates to "you sing" or "you are singing" in English.

The verb "porter" is conjugated as "je porte" (I wear), "tu portes" (you wear), "il/elle/on porte" (he/she/one wears), "nous portons" (we wear), "vous portez" (you wear), and "ils/elles portent" (they wear).

Rate this question:
