Les Fleurs Ne Sont Pas Chères*

Mon ami du loin likes compliments; when I told him that I had a thesaurus, he told me to bring the words on.

Okay, since I've little more to offer than words, here goes.

From the original "funny, épatant, étincelant, interessant," I find:

amusant, comique, étonnant, gai, plaisant ,singulier, surprennant
chouette, excellent, formidable, merveilleux, sensationnel
brilliant, incandescant, luminescent, phosporescent, rutilant, scintillant
attachant, captivant ,passionnant

We'll see what the third tier of compliments d'après Petit Robert is bientôt.

(*means literally, "flowers are not expensive." Figuratively - talk is cheap.)
