When writing I saw in French do you add an e to the verb if subject is female?

You are thinking of the verb "voir" (to see), but the rule applies to many other verbs in French.

Here's how it works:

* In the present tense, the -er verbs in French change their ending depending on the subject pronoun**.

* For the third-person singular (he, she, it), the verb "voir" becomes "voit".

Here's an example:

* Je vois (I see)

* Tu vois (You see)

* Il voit (He sees)

* Elle voit (She sees)

* On voit (One sees)

* Nous voyons (We see)

* Vous voyez (You see)

* Ils voient (They see)

* Elles voient (They see)

So, yes, you add an "e" to the verb "voir" when the subject is female, like "elle" or "elles".

This is a common grammatical rule in French verbs, so it's important to learn and apply it!
