Either works Rusty as notre means 'de nous' but you are right as 'nos' indicates that I used mots (plural) which isn't evident with notre.

"Notre est one adjectif possessif et peut ĂȘtre facilement remplacĂ© au pluriel par nos."

one point pour toi!  :grin: ( use of u n doesn't work so the elimination of French words has started!)

Gawd, it's like me dad's joined the forum! He was a French teacher, studied at Tours University.


Cheers Joe, never knew they were interchangeable.
Une is permitted on here, but its masculine form is seen by the filter as an Americanism.
