Il a acheté un ancien appartement.

English Translation

He bought an old apartment.

Doesn’t “ancien” mean “former” when it is in front of the noun?

Hi @paris2020,

That’s usually the case

Il a acheté un appartement ancien. (old) [I think that’s a better translation]

Hier, j’ai parlé à un ancien collègue. (former)
