Describing People in French

7th Grade45 minutes

Learning Objective

Je peux décrire l'apparence physique et la personnalité de quelqu'un en utilisant le vocabulaire approprié.

Key Concepts

In French, adjectives used to describe someone must agree in number and gender with the noun or pronoun they modify.

In general, French adjectives are placed after the noun they describe, but the color 'marron' (brown) is an exception and does not change to agree.

To describe your own physical appearance in French, replace 'He has' or 'She has' with 'I have' and 'He is' or 'She is' with 'I am'.
