Notes
GENERAL INFO
Ses is a possessive adjective meaning "his," "her," or "its" when referring to multiple items belonging to a single person or entity.
USAGE
It precedes a plural noun (e.g., *ses livres*, his/her books) regardless of the noun's gender. It always matches the *number* (plural) of the noun possessed. For example: "Il aime ses parents." (He loves his parents.)
TRAPS
Do not confuse ses with "ces" (these/those, a demonstrative adjective) or "c'est" (it is/this is). Ses implies possession, while "ces" points out specific items.
