Question

question 9 of 10
fill in the blank in the following sentence with the correct verb form below:
ils ______ 21 ans.

a. a

b. ont

c. as

d. sont

Explanation:

The sentence is French, meaning "They are 21 years old." In French, to state age, we use the verb "avoir" (to have) conjugated for the plural subject "Ils" (They). The third-person plural present tense of "avoir" is "ont". "Sont" is the third-person plural of "être" (to be), which is not used for age in French. Options A and C are incorrect verb forms for this context.

Answer:

B. ont
