How do you describe colors that are not the basic color wheel hues like red, blue, green, purple? For example, if I wanted to describe a pale peachy-pink? Rose is too broad. I am an artist and I want to be able to describe in French colors more specifically. Merci.

I was wondering what is the easiest way to know when something is in the 12 hour clock or when something is in the 24 hour clock? This seems to be my most problem in this section of understanding.

In the follow sentance someone is reporting back what was said to them.
"donc, au beau milieu de la nuit tu serais allé boire un verre d'eau et tu aurais vu une soucoupe volante dans le jardin, excuse-moi!"
Why is the conditional being used here instead of the passe compose. And if I were to speak this sentance using the passe compose would it be incorrect. Thanks.
