new
The French word for "new" is "nouveau" (masculine) or "nouvelle" (feminine), meaning "recently made, introduced, or discovered; not existing before."
In this sentence, 'nouvelle' is the feminine singular form of 'new' in French, agreeing with the feminine noun 'voiture' (car).
J'ai acheté une nouvelle voiture.
I bought a new car.
Here, 'nouvelle' is used descriptively again to emphasize the recent innovation or novelty, agreeing with the feminine noun 'technologie' (technology).
Cette technologie est toute nouvelle.
This technology is brand new.
In this case, 'nouvel' is the masculine singular form of 'new' used before a masculine noun 'emploi' (job) that starts with a vowel sound, making the sentence smoother to say.
