Once my French teacher put a photograph of a penguin on the whiteboard.
She said, (in French,) "Tell me about this penguin."
We exercised our shaky usage by stating the obvious.
He is black and white!
He is tall!
He swims!
Eventually Tim or someone equally brilliant piped in and said, "He's daring".
This opened a new world. We gleefully began to wax poetic and get very imaginative about this penguin.
He is worried about money!
He misses his girlfriend!
He likes chocolate cupcakes!
He is on vacation with his Aunt!
