Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted April 7, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Traditionally all ships are 'she.' But Ponant ships are generally named after men and have the masculine article 'Le.' So are they called 'she'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.S. Posted June 2, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 2, 2019 No. In French, ships are masculine. Even if the name is feminine. For example : LE NORMANDIE. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.S. Posted July 13, 2019 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I might add, however, that when referring to the ship in English, you would still refer to the ship as “she” It is in French, that the ships are referred to as “he”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
