Qu'est-ce que?/Qu'est-ce que c'est que? "What is the difference between "Qu'est-ce que c'est que le Sacré Coeur à Paris" and "Qu'est-ce que la Sorbonne "? The Sorbonne and Sacre Coeur are both buildings. I have looked at the lesson and it doesn't help me to know why it isn't "Qu'est-ce que c'est que la Sorbonne.""

Difference between brouillard & brumeux?Besides brouillard being a noun and brumeux being an adjective, how are the two different? It says in the lesson that there is no adjective for brouillard (fog), but a search on word reference shows that brumeux means foggy. How come it says there is no adjective for brouillard then?
