Les indéfini (tout, toute(s), tous)

Hello there. 

In this question: Les champions sont…… heureux.

I think that tous(adj) and tout(adv) are both correct.

Les champions sont tous heureux.

=The champions are all happy.

Les champions sont tout heureux.

=The champions are very happy. 


If I'm wrong, pleas tell me which indéfini is true

Bonjour Karen, 

Bravo ! You are correct: tout -> adverb  /  tous -> adjective. ;-)

Hi Karen,

Please could you quote which Kwiziq question or lesson you are referring to?

Karen M.A1Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

Actually it's a question that I saw in a book. (fill in the blank with tout/toute/tous/toutes) 

And I solved it with the help of the Sorbonne grammar book=>The topic of indéfini

Yes, Karen, your understanding sounds spot on to me.
