Questions & Answers about Sa cousine est souvent occupée.
The translation says "Her cousin", but couldn't sa also mean "his"?
What is the word for a male cousin?
Why does the word occupée end with a double "e"?
Adjectives in French must match the noun they describe. Because cousine is a feminine noun, the base adjective occupé (busy) gets an extra e tacked onto the end to make it feminine as well.
Can I put souvent before the verb?
No, in French, short adverbs like souvent (often) usually go directly after the conjugated verb. That is why the sentence says est souvent rather than souvent est.
