2. Remember that the color words are adjectives in French meaning
they will “agree” in gender and in number with the nouns they modify.
Agreement is another huge topic in lesson 4 so you will see this term
and you will need to be sure to use it when you are describing nouns
with any words that are descriptive words – adjectives. This chart
shows you the forms of the color words that you will use.
3. In French- all colors come AFTER the noun.
a. All colors must agree with the noun.
b. Colors that never change: marron and orange
