Learn how to describe people in French — hair, eye color, height, and personality — with vocabulary you'll actually use in real conversations.

Instructions for Describing People in French

This game builds vocabulary for describing people in French, covering both physical appearance (height, hair color and texture, eye color) and personality traits (kind, funny, talkative, and more). Students practice matching English descriptive words and phrases with their French equivalents, moving from single words to full descriptive sentences such as "I am tall and slim" or "She has short, straight hair."

The game works well as a vocabulary introduction before a unit on personal descriptions, as practice ahead of a speaking or writing assignment where students describe themselves or a partner, or as review before a test. Teachers may want to note that French adjectives agree in gender and number with the noun they describe — this game introduces core vocabulary in simple sentence patterns as a foundation before tackling adjective agreement in more detail.
