There is really no equivalent to the word "awesome" in French, so I am usually at a loss when trying to describe awesome things. In America, old French teachers will tell you that "chouette" (which actually means owl), means "cool" in French. In reality, it's an outdated term for cool, and very few people use it. But they do use the word "super," especially as a adjective qualifier. And even better than super is "hyper"... ie I am hyper-excited that Marisa and Priya are here!
