Invariable adjectives

Some adjectives are known as invariable, which means they don't change at all. For marron and orange, nothing needs to be added to form the feminine and plural forms, eg:

  • je porte un pullover marron - I'm wearing a brown sweater
  • elle a des lunettes orange - she's got orange glasses

Other adjectives like chic, extra, cool, super don't change either.
