Key learning points
- [oi] is pronounced as in 'voir'. [oin] is pronounced as in 'besoin'. [oin] is nasal only when followed by a consonant.
- Indefinite adjectives go before the noun they describe. Tout le agrees in number/gender. Chaque/plusieurs don't change.
- Même/autre agree in number. Quelques is an indefinite ajective meaning some. It agrees in number, so is usually plural.
Keywords
Indefinite adjective - describes a noun in a non-specific sense e.g. some, even, each
Common misconception
Indefinite adjectives always agree in number and gender.
'Tout le' agrees in number and gender but 'même', 'autre' and 'quelque' agree in number only. 'Chaque' and 'plusieurs' do not change.
