Une histoire très interéssante

Hello kwiziq team,

Why is “Une histoire très interéssante” correct?   très being a single syllable adverb  shouldn’t it be “ une très intéressante histoire” ?

Hi S,

Both are acceptable.

Please note the accute accent in on the wrong -e -

intéressant/e

Hope this helps!

Because 'tres' isn't the only adjective here. "Interessant" is not one of the adjectives that traditionally goes in front of the noun. (Although Cecile has said you can use either).
