wonderful / merveileuse

I told my wife the other day
"you're wonderful", and what did she say
"but what do you mean by wonderful?"
so I googled it

let's see: wonderful
part of speech: adjective
definition: great, extraordinary
that fits!

I meant that you're great
I meant that you're extraordinary
and most of these 42 synonyms also apply:

    you're admirable, amazing, 
    astonishing, astounding
    awe-inspiring, awesome, and brilliant

    you're cool, divine, and dynamite
    enjoyable and excellent
    fabulous, fantastic, and fine

    you're groovy and incredible
    magnificent and marvelous
    miraculous and so outstanding

    you're peachy and phenomenal
    pleasant, pleasing, and prime
    remarkable, sensational, and something else

    you're staggering and startling
    strange and stupendous
    super, superb, surprising, and swell

    you're terrific, you're too much
    you're tremendous, unheard-of
    and absolutely wondrous

and that's what I meant
when I told you
you're wonderful


and that's when she looked at me
and smiled a little bit devilishly
and said "dit le en Français!"

d’accord!:

    tu es admirable, belle, 
    éblouissante et élégante 
    épatante, étonnante, et étourdissante!

    extraordinaire et fabuleuse, 
    fantastique et féerique, 
    formidable et incroyable!

    tu es inouïe, magique, 
    merveilleuse, miraculeuse, 
    parfaite, et phénoménale!
 
    tu es prodigieuse, ravissante,
    remarquable, stupéfiante, 
    surnaturelle et surprenante!

et voilà, c’est
ce que je voulais dire
quand je t’ai dit
tu es merveilleuse
