Autre chose et quelques chose d'autre

Question

I thought that "turc" referred to a Turkish man and that "turque" referred to a Turkish woman. The correct answer indicates that "turque" refers to a Turkish man. Please explain why my answer was marked as incorrect.

Bonjour Harlan,
You are right that 'turc' -> masculine and that 'turque' -> feminine. I have checked the questions from this kwiz and each time the answer is correct. If the issue persists, please report it via your 'report it' button in your correction board.
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !

Answer

It is better to report this through the quiz report issue button, as your answer and the question can both be checked, with any correction made to the quiz if needed. Turc is the masculine noun, turque is the feminine noun, as you note.
