Questions & Answers about Le vieux château a cent fenêtres.
Why does the sentence use cent fenêtres instead of un cent fenêtres?
Since fenêtres is plural, shouldn't cent have an "s" at the end too?
Why does vieux come before château? I thought adjectives go after the noun.
Most do, but a small group of common, short adjectives describing Beauty, Age, Goodness, and Size (often called BAGS adjectives) go before the noun. Because vieux means old (Age), it comes before château.
