Bangs adjectives

may m.B1Kwiziq community member

I don't want to sound dumb, but are the adjectives you are using (excellent, magnifique) BAGS adjectives? Because I see you place them in front of the verb, when only BAGS adjectives do that, and I previously thought the only BAGS adjectives in the 'goodness' section were 'mauvais(e), bon(ne), meilleur(e), and gentil(le).' Thanks, May.

This question relates to:French lesson ""Des" becomes " de/d' " in front of adjectives preceding nouns (French Partitive Articles)"

Hi May,

To me, 'magnifique' does fit into the B and 'excellent' into the G of that classification but these two can be placed before or after the noun without any change in meaning, so they are pretty special ...

Hope this helps!
