Notes
GENERAL INFO
Je means "I". It is a first-person singular subject pronoun in French.
USAGE
Je always precedes the verb it is the subject of.
For example, "Je parle" (I speak) or "Je suis fatigué" (I am tired).
TRAPS
Je becomes " j' " before a verb starting with a vowel or a mute 'h' (elision).
For instance, "J'aime" (I love), not "Je aime".
Remember, je is a subject pronoun and cannot be used alone (e.g., in answer to "Who?"); use "moi" instead.
