"Plural" not in the title

"Plural" not in the title

The wording in the article implies that this rule only applies to plural nouns/adjectives, but the title does not state that. Could "plural" be added to the title as well to match?

This question relates to:French lesson ""Des" becomes " de/d' " in front of adjectives preceding nouns (French Partitive Articles)"

Bonjour Blake !

The article "des" is only used with plural nouns, hence its contraction applying to only plural cases :)
