Plural Subject Pronouns

Level 1

Nosautres, vosautres, eles and elas mean we, you (all) and they.

How It Works

The plural pronouns go with the plural verb endings.

Pronoun	Meaning	èsser	parlar
nosautres, nosautras	we	sèm	parlam
vosautres, vosautras	you (all)	sètz	parlatz
eles	they (men or mixed)	son	parlan
elas	they (women)	son	parlan

The feminine forms nosautras and vosautras are for groups of women only. For a mixed group, use the masculine forms. This course uses the masculine forms in its examples.

As with the singular pronouns, you can leave them out: Parlam occitan. already means "We speak Occitan." Say the pronoun to stress the group or to tell eles from elas.
