I had to resort to my dictionary as this was not clear which type of mould was meant.
A shape as opposed to a fungus as in going mouldy.
On the quiz, I missed this question:
Tu aimes le violet ? Oui, ________ est très joli!
I answered with 'il', because it fits the criteria that we are not talking about something general, but something specifically referred to previously: the color violet. The answer was actually "c'".
Can you explain why?
In the first sentence it is votre frere andthe answer is vôtre frere???
The suitable choice of answers in this exercise for translating "new people" was either de nouvelles personnes, or des gens nouveaux. Can nouveau/nouvelle therefore go both before and after the noun? And in every case? I have learnt that gens is an extraordinary "hermaphroditic" word where I believe that adjectives that precede it are generally feminine and adjectives that succeed it are masculine (les bonnes gens, les gens courageux), but I thought that nouveau/nouvelle was an adjective that standardly goes before the noun, so I thought that in this case de nouvelles gens would be the option instead of des gens nouveaux? Thanks.
