Mon amie or Ma amie? French Possessive Adjectives

I have recently posted a short video asking you to find a mistake in the French sentence "J'ai appellé mon amie ce matin - I called my friend this morning". So many of you thought the mistake was mon amie and should be either ma amie or mon ami. (The error was the spelling of appelé, which only takes one L). In this French lesson, we are going to discuss the rule around MON MA MES and when to use MON with a feminine noun.

    I am glad you posted the original question because, when I got it wrong I went back and reviewed the chapter on passé composé in the Grammar Workbook. I found that, not only did I not understand "ma - mon - mes", my understanding of passé composé was also weak. More questions please! Sometimes it is better to get them wrong!

As there is "elle" that is feminin, Or no matter what the pronoun is, we have to see the noun i.e pantalon and apply e according to it's gender. Please help me with this. Not able to understand!
