Question

French Help. EXPLAIN your answer. DO NOT GUESS or use translate. I need help with the use of feminine/masculine terms part. (une/un and what choices are feminine or masculine, my course isn't the best at explaining it.) Please don't just guess w/o an explanation or use google translate, I need REAL help.

Pour jouer au baseball, il faut une ______ et un _____.


ballon, raquette


batte, gant


balle, batte


gant, batte

Answer 1

Answer is B

Feminine terms usually always end with an “e”

Masculine terms will never have an “e”

When it is a group of friends and there is one male, the word would never have an “e”

Idk if that makes sense but I learned that in French
