1

Negative Imperative (2nd person singular)

Use "N' + verb + pas" to give a negative command to someone you address informally (tu).

2

Elision with "N'"

The "n" contracts with the vowel of "oublie" forming "N'oublie"; never write "Ne oublie".

3

Possessive adjective "ton"

"Ton" agrees with the masculine singular noun "animal"; use "ta" for feminine nouns.

4

Partitive article "les"

"Les" indicates that you are talking about the specific medications, not medication in general.

Common Mistakes

  • Oublie pas les médicaments de ton animal.

    The negative imperative requires the contracted form "N'oublie pas"; dropping the "n'" is incorrect.

  • N'oublie pas les médicaments de votre animal.

    Mixing formal "votre" with the informal verb form "N'oublie" creates a register clash.

  • N'oublie pas les médicaments de animal.

    When referring to a specific pet, you can also say "de ton chien" or "de ton chat"; "de ton animal" is generic but acceptable.

Alternatives

  • N'oublie pas les médicaments de ton chien.

    Don't forget your dog's medication.

  • N'oublie pas les médicaments de ton chat.

    Don't forget your cat's medication.

  • Pense à prendre les médicaments de ton animal.

    Remember to take your pet's medication.

Cultural Tip

In France, pet owners often keep a small "trousse de secours" (first‑aid kit) for their animals, and it's common to remind each other of medication before a vet visit or a trip. The informal "tu" form is appropriate with friends or family; with a professional (e.g., a pet sitter) you would use the formal "N'oubliez pas…".
