🗨In Conversation
C'est ma porte ?
Is this my door?
Oui, c'est ta porte.
Yes, that's your door.
✕Common Mistakes
Oui, c'est son porte.
‘Porte’ is feminine, so the correct possessive is ‘ta porte’ (or ‘votre porte’), not ‘son porte’.
Oui, c'est ma porte est.
Do not add ‘est’ after ‘c’est’; the verb ‘être’ is already included in the contraction.
Oui, c’est à ta porte.
Use ‘c’est ta porte’ for identification; ‘à ta porte’ would mean ‘at your door’, which changes the meaning.
↔Alternatives
Oui, c'est votre porte.
Yes, that's your door. (formal/plural)
Exactement, c'est ta porte.
Exactly, that's your door.
Oui, c'est bien ta porte.
Yes, that's indeed your door.
Cultural Tip
In French, possessive adjectives must match the gender and number of the noun, not the owner. Because 'porte' is feminine, you say 'ta porte' (not 'ton porte'). Also, French speakers often use 'c'est' for identification (c'est + noun) and reserve 'il/elle est' for adjectives (il est grand).
