Notes

GENERAL INFO

Incroyable means "incredible," "unbelievable," or "amazing." It functions as an adjective.

USAGE

It's widely used to express strong surprise, admiration, or sometimes dismay. It can describe a noun (e.g., "une histoire incroyable" - an incredible story) or stand alone as an exclamation ("C'est incroyable !" - That's incredible!).

TRAPS

Incroyable is invariant in gender (always ends in 'e') but agrees in number. So, it's "un homme incroyable," "une femme incroyable," but "des choses incroyables."
