Adjective agreement with nouns — An adjective agreeing with nouns linked by et, ou or ni
The adjective may agree with the closest noun only:
- une table et une chaise bleue
a table and a blue chair
The adjective may agree with all the nouns, in which case it will be plural, and will be feminine only if all the nouns are feminine. Otherwise it will be masculine:
- une table et une chaise bleues
a blue table and chair
- Il ne portait ni de veste ni de pantalon bleus
He was wearing neither a blue jacket nor a blue pair of trousers
un stylo ou un cahier bleus a blue pen or exercise book
