【BASIC GRAMMAR】
A) Nouns
In french , we have feminine and masculine nouns, VERY important when you learn new vocab to learn with the right article (whether feminine or masculine).
un (masculine) | une (feminine) = a
le (masculine) | la (feminine) = the
ex: une ville | un quartier

In French, adjectives must be 'conjugated' in gender and number based on the nouns they modify
ex: une ville colorée | un quartier coloré | des villes colorées | des quartiers colorés
