Tonight I am proposing quite a challenging test… I noticed how difficult it seems to be for people to write colours in French! I mean… they never know if they should turn them feminine or plural. Actually there are rules on those specific adjectives… yet it looks like most people either forgot about them or never really learned them…
I found one that I think will give you some fil à retordre… yet I am convinced you will enjoy giving it a try! For some unknown reason, I have always been excellent at agreeing colours… would it be because I attended schools runned by nuns?… They were quite picky on the rules!… Sometimes I thought they were exaggerating everything but, I have to admit that I secretly thanked them many times for having been so tough! I am one of the few remaining dinosaurs who can write flawless texts without having to check with Antidote or some other spelling/grammar tools! Trust me, it saves time!
I had the time of my life taking this quiz and I got 60/60… It will be interesting to read your comments on this one! Fasten your seat belts though… you will be in for a rough ride!
I cannot wait much longer to see leaves on the trees!
Will this endless winter die soon?

While painfully waiting… click here to play!
Enjoy every minute of it!

Bonjour Lyne,
J’ai eu 45/60. Je suis tombée dans le piège de vermeilles, marron et pastel…
Et je dois avouer que j’ai répondu un peu au hasard pour certaines propositions !
Passe une très bonne journée !
Salut Isabelle,
Je crois que nous nous sommes croisées ici ce matin… j’étais sur le point de quitter la maison pour aller au boulot, alors je n’ai pas vu ton commentaire avant maintenant!
Il est vrai que l’accord des adjectifs de couleur n’est pas toujours aisé et, bien sûr, les pièges sont au rendez-vous! Mais, finalement, tu t’en es bien sortie… compte tenu que ce test ne comportait que des couleurs plutôt style «composé»!
J’espère que tu profites du printemps parisien! Ici, aujourd’hui, il fait un temps magnifique (espérons que nous n’aurons pas droit à une bordée de neige avant la fin du mois)!!!
Bonne journée et bonne semaine!
