3. How beautiful, she is!
4. How beautiful!
 Rule No.1
• What a beautiful girl,
• WHAT+ Noun Phrase

Noun Phrase =
a/an+adjective+Countable Noun

Noun Phrase = adjective+ Countable Noun + s/es

Noun Phrase = adjective+Uncountable Noun
 What a beautiful girl,

What + a beautiful girl

• What + noun phrase

Noun phrase=a beautiful girl

A+ beautiful+ girl = a + adjective + noun

Agnes Monica is! = S + P

Agnes Monica is! = it is optional
