Answer 1

by the way, what does a-t-il mean?

Answer 2

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Y ou have done pretty well with the translation. Here is what it asks:
If you had a bird emblem, which one would you choose and why? Which characteri stics does it have which also pertain to (belong to) you?

Here is the statement = il a = he has, he DOES have, he IS havING. One of the 4 ways to ask a question is with inversion. That means you switch the positions of the subject (il) and the verb (a). However you need the "t" so you can hear it = a-t-il?

Answer 3

P.S. In case I didn't give you the English of "a-t-il?" it is DOES he have, IS he havING or he has?
