What it takes to be a man
Quelle est la différence?
He's kind and so is she. To the French: il est gentil et elle est gentille.
They are both beautiful and happy. In France: Il est beau et heureux et elle est belle et heureuse.
She's quite patient - but he?
elle, americaine: tu es impatiente!
il, française: impatient (masc.), impatiente (fem.), l'impatience
elle: you have the impatience of a woman then!
il - he smiles and chuckles. Apparently he also has a bon sens de l'humour.
It's not only the "le" that "makes a man". As with nouns, so with adjectives: the ending separates the femmes from the hommes.
Vive la différence?
Quelle est la différence? What's the difference?
bon sens de l'humour a good sense of humor
Vive la différence! Long live the difference
