3. In French, adjectives always agree in gender and number with the nouns they modify.

Explanation

In French, adjectives must agree in both gender (masculine or feminine) and number (singular or plural) with the nouns they describe. This means that if you have a feminine singular noun, the adjective must also be in the feminine singular form, and the same applies to masculine and plural forms. For example, if you want to describe a "big cat" (un gros chat), "big" (gros) agrees with the masculine singular noun "chat." If you want to describe "big cats" (des gros chats), the adjective takes the plural form to agree with the plural noun. Adjective agreement is a fundamental aspect of French grammar.

Explanation

In the given sentence, the subject "Léa et Nadine" is plural, so the correct form of the verb "être" is "sont." The adjective "gentil" needs to agree with the subject in gender and number, so it should be changed to "gentilles" to match the plural feminine subject. Therefore, the correct sentence is "Léa et Nadine sont gentilles."
