    • Mmm. That's a challenge. Male definite article, followed by a female adjective, followed by .... I assume you're using a well-known naughty word there, Hydey. Four letters, starts with "s", ends with "t", third letter's i"", etc? In that case, it's "merde".

      Okay. If you're talking about Deity, it's "le petit merde". And I'm expressing no editorial opinion here, I'm only offering a translation service. "Merde" is actually an exclamation, but I suppose it will suffice as a noun in this case.

      Le = masculine gender
      La = feminine gender
      petit = adjective qualifying a male noun
      petite = adjective qualifying a female noun
      Deity = masculine

                                Come again? Perhaps you mean "Je suis un homme" or "Je suis un male" (with a circumflex over the "a").

                                Je ne pas parle le francais tres bien....
                                I agree with Horse's suggestion. And, yes, it's "un" peux.
