Hi
can there be a lesson on the order of two or more adjectives for example
petit , and nouvelle
how would you order them?
une petite maison nouvelle?
une petite nouvelle maison?
une petite et nouvelle maison?
Elle a des cheveux longs ou Elle a des longs cheveux?
Elle a des cheveux courts ou Elle a des courts cheveux?
"un ogre grand comme une maison"
I've learned that adjectives that represent size (like grand, petit, gros, etc) should come before the noun. But in this sentence it is after the noun. Could someone please explain why?
