Bonjour,
I am looking over this lesson and was making compound words and I made a sentence and was hoping you can tell me if it is correct?
Doghouse
Une maison à chien
Thanks
Nicole
I searched ‘Dix-neuf heures et demie’ on Google, and they said you can say it, but it is the informal way. Can you tell me why it still can be used, but it was not accepted as a correct answer? Thanks so much for your understanding.
Why is it "je ne lis pas les journaux" and not "je ne lis pas de journaux"?
When do I use "ne...que" and when do I use "ne...plus que"?
Why is "dans la chambre" used rather than "à la chambre"?
Could you say "elles veulent bien aller à ce concert..."?
Of this one "pour pouvoir te faire"?
“Un bon moyen de mettre la finance au service d'un projet de société alternatif.”

Is the adjective “alternatif” in the masculine form because it’s linked with the masculine noun “projet”? Is there a chance that it should be linked with the female noun “société” and therefore be “alternative”, or is it obvious to French speakers that this would not be the case?
Thanks, Brian
It might be helpful if you indicate which it is? My natural inclination is to think it's past tense.
