Question

question 9 of 10
fill in the blank in the following sentence with the appropriate phrase below.
le frère de mon père est ____.
a. ma soeur.
b. mon cousin.
c. ma tante.
d. mon oncle.

Explanation:

First, translate the French sentence: "Le frère de mon père est ____" means "My father's brother is ____". Now match the options:

• A. ma soeur = my sister (incorrect, not a brother of father)
• B. mon cousin = my cousin (incorrect, cousin is a different family relation)
• C. ma tante = my aunt (incorrect, aunt is female, father's brother is male)
• D. mon oncle = my uncle (correct, father's brother is an uncle in English, and "mon oncle" is the correct French term for this male relation)

Answer:

D. mon oncle.
