In the article we mentioned answering simple questions with "ni l'un ni l'autre" like:
Quel parfum tu veux ? Fraise ou vanille? - Ni l'un ni l'autre.
The "ni l'un ni l'autre" is used to replace "parfum", which is the object of the verb. Are there any instances where ni l'un ni l'autre can be used as a direct object or an indirect object in a full sentence? Thanks!
Why "de couleur" ? I would have expected "la couleur" or "de la couleur".
