Erhm...
In French, it becomes nul (if it's a man (or a masculine thing (like a
problem))) and nulle (if it's a woman (or a feminine thing (like a
solution))).
But then, my wife tells me that even though men can be 'nul', women
can't be considered 'nulle'. :-)
Do I dear saying that's just my 0.02 EUR? Or have I taken this too far
already? :-)
