Bonsoir !
My husband just asked me why there is an indefinite article in the first expression -- faire un tour -- but not in the second: faire demi-tour.
I thought about it, and I had no good response, except that perhaps demi-tour is a fixed expression, like rendez-vous (which also does not take an article). However, that's not a sufficient explanation. Can someone explain it to me (us)?
Merci beaucoup d'avance !
