1 Les adjectifs

2 are used to describe nouns and pronouns

3 Masculine nouns have masculine form adjectives
Xavier est blond. Le garcon est intelligent.

4 feminine nouns have feminine form adjectives
Alice est blonde. La fille est intelligente.

5 This is called a noun-adjective agreement or L’ accord

6 Masculine adjective + e feminine adjective BLOND + E BLONDE
In a written French, feminine adjectives are usually formed as follows: Masculine adjective + e feminine adjective BLOND E BLONDE Exception: If the masculine adjective has an e already, the feminine form stays the same Le garcon est stupide. La fille est stupide.

7 Pronunciation: A. Masculine…… do not pronounce final consonant (unless the word ends in –e) B. Feminine…. Pronounce final consonant because the e will usually follow it Masculine: Feminine: BLOND BLONDE PETIT PETITE

8 POSITION: Unlike English… many French adjectives follow the noun that they modify EX. John est un garçon americain. La fille brune est française.
