The Secret Lives of Adjectives
This week, we’re going to learn how to say how amazing, hardworking, patient, attentive, interesting, studious we are… by mastering French descriptive adjectives 🤗
Of course, as always with French, there is an extra subtlety to using adjectives compared to English: not only do you need to agree the adjective with its related noun in number (singular or plural) but also in gender (feminine or masculine)… Quelle galère ! 😅

Quote me on this!
French writer Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893)
Discover what this great French author had to say about adjectives:
“Quelle que soit la chose qu’on veut dire, il n’y a qu’un mot pour l’exprimer, qu’un verbe pour l’animer et qu’un adjectif pour la qualifier.”
(Whatever one wishes to say, there is only one word to express it, only one verb to bring it to life, and only one adjective to describe it.)
