Votre and Vos are both words in the French language, which are used as possessive adjectives. Possessive adjectives usually serve as a perfect replacement or substitution for the subject in indicating their possession of an object or to what or whom a certain object belongs. Both Vos and Votre are the polite forms of the word "your," which is an English word. Votre is an adjective that shows possession of an object in the singular form.

For example, "Tell me your name" is singular; the French equivalence is “Quel est votre nom?” while for the plural, we will have it like this, "what are your names? “Quels sont vos noms?” Worthy of note is the fact that in those examples that were given above when something is owned in the singular form, “votre” is the word used. While, on the other hand, when something is owned that is plural in form, “Vos” is used.
