 Bonjour Caroline,

Is it in a question from a kwiz? I could not see it in the lesson or in the questions from the kwiz.

‘Incroyable’, like most French adjectives, is placed after the noun it refers to.

Une histoire incroyable = an incredible story

Un travail incroyable = an incredible piece of work / job

 

However, it does happen that ‘incroyable’ (extraordinaire, passionnant, formidable, fantastique…) can be placed before the noun it refers to. In that case, they’ll emphasise the feeling / opinion without changing their meaning:

Une vue incroyable an incredible view

Une incroyable vue = a fantastic view

 

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
