"Not one more word"

Translation: Pas un mot de plus

[Smashmonster2]

why is it not "Pas un mot plus?"

Bonus question: when are we suppose to use "de" between a noun and an adverb?

[Ripcurlgirl]

I was very curious about this myself so I posted a question on the WordRef forum and received this response from a native French speaker:

You can only use de plus after a noun when you mean: 1 more X, 2 additional Y's, etc.

► "Not one more word". → Pas un mot de plus. ✔
Pas un mot plus ✘ is simply not idiomatic.

It can also be used after an adverb. ► "Nothing more." Rien de plus.

As a standalone phrase, de plus means "moreover, besides".

There's also the phrase de plus en plus→ "more and more".

can i use "aucun mot de plus" ?
thanks

[PeaceJoyPancakes]

My question too.

[Trinigirl54]

Why is the first hint used "aucune" if it is not correct to use. Then that hint should not be listed. These hints are becoming frustrating!

[transcendent1]

Can I use it with other nouns, like 'Pas un livre de plus' ?

[PeaceJoyPancakes]

Certainly.

I know there must be a way to say this using something like
aucun ... rien ?

"Pas un autre mot" - c'est d'accord? Merci
