Example

Une étoile filante a traversé le ciel hier soir.
A shooting star crossed the sky last night.
Pronunciation: Une ay-twal fee-lahnt a trav-ers-say luh syel yair swar.
Grammar: "Étoile" is feminine (une étoile). In the passé composé, "a traversé" uses "avoir" as the auxiliary because "traverser" is a transitive verb here.
