Questions & Answers about Vos clients sont ici.

Why do we use vos instead of votre here?

In French, possessive adjectives change depending on whether the thing you own is singular or plural. Because clients is plural, you must use the plural form vos. If it were just one client, it would be votre client.

Does vos mean I am talking to one person or multiple people?

It could be either! Because the pronoun vous can mean a plural 'you' (a group of people) or a formal singular 'you' (like a single customer or a stranger), vos clients can mean 'the clients belonging to all of you' or 'the clients belonging to you, sir/ma'am'.

Since we are using vos (your), why is the verb sont instead of êtes?

This is a very common beginner trap! The verb always matches the subject of the sentence, not the owner. The subject here is vos clients (they), not 'you'. So we use the 'they' form of the verb être, which is ils sont (they are), not the 'you' form (vous êtes).

Do you pronounce the 's' at the end of vos or clients?

No. The 's' at the end of vos is silent because the next word (clients) starts with a consonant. The 's' at the end of clients and the 't' at the end of sont are also silent.
