Question

question 3 of 10
fill in the blank with the correct item to form a logical question:
______ vous américaine?

a. êtes

b. est - ce

c. parlez

d. est - ce que

Explanation:

This is a French grammar question asking for the correct interrogative structure. The phrase "vous américaine" refers to "you (female) American", so we need a verb that links the subject to the adjective. "Être" (to be) is the correct verb here. For inverted questions with "vous", the correct form is "Êtes-vous". Option B and D use "Est-ce" structures which would require a different word order (e.g., "Est-ce que vous êtes américaine?"). Option C "Parlez" means "speak", which does not fit the meaning.

Answer:

A. Êtes
