👩🏻‍🏫 Today’s grammar focus is the word 👉🏻 such. You should use such, not so, before a noun or a noun phrase. For example, Poor Things looks like such a great movie or it’s such a beautiful day here in London. Can you think of some more examples?

so vs such

🤓 We often use so and such followed by a that clause to talk about a consequence or an effect. We often omit that in informal contexts.

We use so before an adjective or adverb: Griselda is so good! / He ate breakfast so quickly.
We use so much with uncountable nouns and so many with plural nouns: She has so much information about places to visit/ I have read so many fictional books recently.
We use such + a/an + adjective + singular countable noun and such + adjective + plural or countable noun: I always have such a good time exploring new places. / She has such great knowledge on history.
