Les adjectifs descriptifs (Descriptive Adjectives)
As we’ve already learned, adjectives agree with the nouns they
describe in both gender (masculine /feminine) and number (singular/ plural).
Ma voisine est canadienne. Ce sont des cours difficiles.
My neighbor is Canadian. These are difficult classes.

2. In general, you add an –e to the end of an adjective to make it feminine. Add an –s to make the singular forms plural.
Il est blond. He’s blond.
Elle est blonde. She’s blond.
Ils sont blonds. They’re blond.
Elles sont blondes. They’re blond.

3. You can look at the adjective forms this way:
masculine feminine
singular grand grande
plural grands grandes

4. If the masculine singular form of the adjective already ends in –e, you don’t add an extra –e for the feminine form.
masculine feminine
singular jeune jeune
plural jeunes jeunes

5. The adjective marron is invariable
The adjective marron is invariable. It doesn’t change to match the noun it describes.
J’ai les yeux marron. I have brown eyes.

6. Tes parents sont-ils grands? Are your parents tall?
The expression de taille moyenne means of average height/size.
Tes parents sont-ils grands? Are your parents tall?
Non, ils sont de taille moyenne. No, they’re of average height.

7. Some adjectives have irregular forms:

8. Most of the time, adjectives follow the nouns they describe.
Marie est une fille sympathique. Marie is a nice girl.

9. There are some adjectives that generally are placed before the noun
that they describe.
beau joli
bon long
grand nouveau
gros petit
jeune vieux
J’habite dans une nouvelle maison. I live in a new house.
Ce sont de bons amis. They’re good friends.
Exception: Tu as les cheveux longs. You have long hair.
