How do you say the word her in French?

The French word for "her" depends on the context:

* As a possessive adjective: "her" is translated as "sa" if the noun is feminine singular, or "ses" if the noun is feminine plural.

* Example: "Her book" - "Son livre" (masculine), "Her books" - "Ses livres" (masculine)

* Example: "Her sister" - "Sa sœur" (feminine), "Her sisters" - "Ses sœurs" (feminine)

* As a direct object pronoun: "her" is translated as "la".

* Example: "I see her" - "Je la vois"

* As an indirect object pronoun: "her" is translated as "lui".

* Example: "I give her a present" - "Je lui donne un cadeau"

It's important to note:

* The French language differentiates between masculine and feminine genders, so the translation of "her" will vary depending on the gender of the noun it modifies.

* The position of the pronoun in the sentence can also affect the translation.

Remember that the best way to choose the correct translation is to consider the entire sentence and the grammatical context.
