Choose the grammatically correct sentence.
Tu as un bel appartement.
CORRECT
Tu as un beau appartement.
Tu as une belle appartement.
Tu as un appartement beau.
Tu as une appartement belle.
Explanation
"Appartement" is a masculine noun, but it also begins with a vowel sound. The preceding adjective cannot end in a vowel sound as well. "Bel" is a masculine adjective used to place a consonant between the two vowel sounds. Adjectives referring to beauty are always placed before the noun.
