Notes
GENERAL INFO
Une means "a," "an," or "one" in English. It is the indefinite article for feminine singular nouns and can also function as a feminine singular numeral.
USAGE
Use une before a feminine singular noun (e.g., *une fleur*, a flower; *une maison*, a house). As a numeral, it signifies "one" feminine item (e.g., *j'ai une pomme*, I have one apple).
TRAPS
The main trap is confusing une with *un*. Remember une is exclusively for feminine singular nouns, while *un* is for masculine singular nouns. Incorrectly using them is a common beginner mistake.
