agreement of adjectives when two adjectives describe the same nounBonjour! I thought that if two adjectives were being used to describe the same noun, then you wrote these adjectives both in the masculine form, even if the noun is feminine, e.g. Elle a acheté une nouvelle robe blanc et noir. Yet, the correct answer in a quizz I did was "les canines blanches et pointres", not "blancs et pointres". Can someone please explain this? Cheryl.

la République Française, où la République française ?

Small point of detail : la République Française, or la République française ?

I think this should be la République française (française not capitalised).

What is the consensus on this ? Does it matter ? Would either be ok ?

On Wikipedia, in this context , française generally seems to be in lower case, and I think the same on L'OBS web site.

Thanks. Paul.

Je serai sûrement en retard d'un quatre d'heureShouldn't it be 'Je serai sûrement en retard un quatre d'heure,' since the article states être en retard (without the de) is a possibility?
