D. There is an adjective modifying both the subject and the object.
In the sentence, 'Few Americans speak fluent French.', the pronoun (indefinite) is few; adjective fluent; verb speak.
Americans = noun - subject few = adjective - it modifies the subject. speak = verb fluent = adjective - it modifies the object. French = noun - object
Few is an adjective; here it modifies Americans.Fluent is also an adjective, which modifies french in this sentence.Although this sentence would be understood and accepted by any English speaker, the "grammar police" would probably prefer either "few Americans are fluent in french' or "few Americans speak french fluently".The use of the adverb 'fluently' makes it plain that we are referring to how the language is spoken rather than what words are actually said.
i can say that is probably true
few" is an adjective. Yes, it is, because it modifies the noun (the noun, in your sentence, being "American".) "Americans" is the subject, because in the sentence, they're the ones doing the action, aren't they? "speak" is the verb, what is being done in that sentence…(what's being done by the subject: Americans) "fluent" is also an adjective. So the answer is not A because there is two adjectives, two words modifying the next word (few, modifying Americans and fluent, modifying French). This is a trick answer for people wondering if "few" is an adjective. The answer is not B either because we already know there're two adjectives. The answer is not C because the verb "speak" could not be an adjective. The answer D is the right one because an adjective is modifying both the subject and the object but it is again a trick question because it seems to imply that it is the same adjective when it's not: the adjective "few" is modifying the subject "Americans" and the adjective "fluent" is modifying the object "French". So the subject and the object are both modified by an adjective (just not the same one…).
