English lesson: so and such

There are used in the same way:

to make something stronger.

So (synonym for very):

The film was very good
The film was so good

That food is very delicious
That food is so delicious

The "so" goes before the adjective

subject (noun) + verb 'be' + so + adjective


Such (makes the expanded noun phrase (adjective + noun) stronger)

It was such a good film

See how the adjective and noun are next to each other.

That is such delicious food

verb 'be' + such + expanded noun phrase (adjective + noun)

Try these:

interesting book

Example:

The book is so interesting
That is such an interesting book

awful weather

kind person

cute puppy

    I've seen "so" and "very" used in the same sentence by an English speaker. For example, these flowers are so very pretty. Is this correct?

    @Pisces Yes! Good work. It's done to emphasise the very.

    @อยากรวยเพราะถูกหวยยยยย Perfect. As 'you' are a person you can leave the subject as 'you'. Good job!
