French Adjectives

Adjectives are words that describe things, such as people, places and feelings. We use adjectives in English as well!

Masculine and feminine

You may need to change the spelling of adjectives depending on whether the thing that you're describing is masculine or feminine.

Feminine words usually need an -e added:
e.g. il est grand - he is tall
or elle est grande - she is tall

Do not add an -e if the word already ends with one:
e.g. jaune - yellow, mince - slim.

All the words for colours can be used as adjectives.
