      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.

                                      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)
