I believe the answer is:

comment

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'how french' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
I also know that both 'how' and 'french' relate to this answer.

'it is to pass remarks about something' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for comment that I've seen before include "observation" , "Remark, observe" , "Nancy's version of how" , "Leader writer's forte" , "offer opinion" .)
