Droite is feminin, Droit is masculin

Main droite, Côté droit

Surprised that my grad-school grasp of French (read: just enough to get the gist of that one article that they insisted I read in its native tongue) was enough to get me 100% on this. Nice.

It's an anomaly of our language, we have no word for "cheap" and we use that strange locution instead.

Technically, so should vieil. It is the masculine form preceding a vowel sound, including the unaspirated H. As in vieil homme.

I have to say that "avant" is ambiguous. It can mean "before" (as an adverb) or "front" (as a noun), hence it can be the antonym of "après" (after) or "arrière" (rear).

You should accept derrière as well because avant can have two meanings (in front of and before).

I agree with you but the antonym of "derrière" is "devant" and the antonym for "avant" is "après", it's better

We use derriere for ass. (a posh way of saying it, just as we use decolleté for cleavage, which I guess you might sort of consider as an antonym ;) )

I'm French: pour "Bon Marché", tu devrais mettre "A bas prix" ou "A bas coût", parce que "bon marché", je n'ai pas compris au début.

I know, I don't understand my own language x), I say "C'est pas cher!" or "C'est un bon prix" for "It's cheap! But it is rare for me, to say " C'est bon marché !", for me it is almost formal language...

C'est que les manuels américains de langue française traduisent « cheap » par « bon marché » sans exception, même si aucun francophone ne dirait ce mot.

I'm American, took French through junior high, high school, and university and was never taught "bon marché". Without context, I thought it might be a store that appeals to a more affluent clientele --- like an upscale boutique. For an antonym, I guessed "marché aux puces".

Not every word has to have an antonym. What's the antonym of "purple"?

cornflakesfu, purple is one of a number of colours which is why it cannot have an antonym. There are only two sexes so there is an antonym of male, man, boy etc.
Arp2600

The fact that there are "only" two sexes doesn't mean they are opposite concepts. For me, they are slight variants of the general concept of human. To say they are antonyms is misogynistic (or misandrist...).

On the colour wheel the opposite of purple is yellow. Which also makes them complimentary colours. [Insert cheesy analogy to men and women.]

A bit difficult for anyone who's never studied French. I guessed three correctly. Without knowing what the words mean, it would be too difficult to commit them to memory, so not even much of a learning experience for me, but praise to those of you who did well.

12/20 apparently is a bad score on this quiz! One point for 60% that is harsh.

I knew what it all meant though besides bonne marché. I just couldnt get the right antonyms.

for sur I tried peutetre... anyone else? (antontym of sûr). (that is , after trying sub I think)

we can play :-) : "sur" (whithout "* ^ " ) is also an adjective meaning acid. So the antonym could be "doux" (sweet)
