Grammar Alert: Definite Articles in French

In French, nouns are usually preceded by a definite article like le (masculine) or la (feminine). When talking about sports, remember to use the appropriate definite article before the sport. For example, it’s le football (soccer) and le tennis, not just ‘football’ or ‘tennis’.
