        I'm sorry, but as the closing date was never specified in the original competition rules, I believe you are at least morally obliged to honour the competition. And on YouTube, please, we don't want any allegations of cheating, do we? :laugh:

                                  Once I'd remembered that "simple" was an old word for "herb", the rest was fairly easy.

                                    the French is le, la or les. Des is of the! Yeah, I know, your decision is final, blah blah blah. :mad:

                                        Congratulation it was very hard. I still do not see the relationship between Herb and Simple. It is time for the 5 minutes french theory 'Des' and 'Du' can mean 'of the' you're right. But also it can mean something that doesn't exist in English, I mean the plural of 'a' or 'an' (the *) below:

                                        ENGLISH FRENCH
                                        the broccoli = le brocoli (defined singular masculine)
                                        the apple = la pomme (defined singular feminine)
                                        the apples = les pommes (defined plural masculine)
                                        the broccolis = les brocolis (defined plural feminine)

                                        an apple = une pomme (undefined singular masculine)
                                        a broccoli = un brocoli (undefined singular feminine)
                                        * apples = des pommes (undefined plural masculine)
                                        * broccolis = des brocolis (undefined plural feminine)

                                          Congratulation it was very hard. I still do not see the relationship between Herb and Simple. It is time for the 5 minutes french theory 'Des' and 'Du' can mean 'of the' you're right. But also it can mean something that doesn't exist in English, I mean the plural of 'a' or 'an' (the *) below:

                                          the apple = la pomme (defined singular feminine)
                                          the apples = les pommes (defined plural masculine)
                                          the broccolis = les brocolis (defined plural feminine)

                                          an apple = une pomme (undefined singular masculine)
                                          a broccoli = un brocoli (undefined singular feminine)
                                          * apples = des pommes (undefined plural masculine)
                                          * broccolis = des brocolis (undefined plural feminine)

                                          As Geoff mentioned "simple" is an old English word for "herb".

                                          In English would be "some", that is, an undefined number greater than 1.
