There is an error in the Notes at the bottom: "^ Not to be confused with prenominal, which means "before the noun". English adjectives are prenominal – the big house — and French adjectives are postnominal — la maison grande." In fact, a limited number of pronouns in French go in front of nouns, and that includes grand/grande. Some French pronouns may go before or after depending on type of meaning, and grand/grande is in this class! https://www.thoughtco.com/introduction-to-french-adjectives-1368789

:It's not hard to find sources for the first section - after all, it was basically an annotated list of articles. ''The views of different schools'' is a much more difficult proposition. I have tried to find some sort of survey article or book that summarizes these theories, without success. As for ''pronominals'', I'm a little skeptical that the term is used very much.
