Hello! so i was wondering for french, why do we use the feminine and masculine pronouns and nouns? aren't they just the same thing?

Bonjour

In French, all nouns have a gender, either masculine or feminine

this comes from the language's Latin  origins.

Some are or feminine or masculine.

Some can be both and, so have a different meaning whether they are masculine or feminine.

exemple =

un mousse (a ship-boy) une mousse (foam)

un moule (a mold) une moule (a mussel)

un voile (a veil) une voile (a sail)

So, no, it's NOT the same thing

It's important to learn them to agree adjectives, pronouns, articles

Some masculine nouns can have a feminine equivalent.

un boucher --> une bouchère  (butcher)

un boulanger -> une boulangère (baker)

☺☺☺☺

perhaps you could write about a birthday party or if you ever went to an amusement park with your family.
