 I think what you have at the moment 'La Jolie Fleur' is correct. Double check with someone though..  Quote:

I'm really almost positive it's La Fleur Jolie...
__________________Because (for those of you that are studying French) you'd say "La Fleur Rouge"; The Red Flower, the adjective comes after the noun in French. You're username has confused me for a while as translators say your current username is correct when I'm sure it isn't  . Are you a muslim by name and practices for the sake of it, or a muslim by heart and soul, willing to submiss to your Creator? |

It's La jolie fleur. Check this out: The placement of most adjectives in French is after the noun: un escargot parlant, une fourmi travailleuse, des tatous intelligents, etc. There is a small group of adjectives, however, that normally precede the noun. These adjectives may be categorized as adjectives of Beauty, Age, Numbers Goodness, and Size (BANGS). autre, other beau (belle), beautiful bon (bonne), good grand (grande), tall, big gros (grosse), big, fat jeune, young joli (jolie), pretty mauvais (mauvaise), bad nouveau (nouvelle), new petit (petite), little vieux (vieille), old http://www.laits.utexas.edu/tex/gr/adj3.html |
