How beautiful a girl she is! Do you say things like that? When we want express some strong feelings, we use such kinds of sentence patterns like,"What a beautiful girl!" "How beautiful the girl is!",right? I always believe that the other sentence pattern"How beautiful a girl she is!" is correct,too. But several days ago, someone told me that there was no such kind of saying in English. Pls help me with it, native speakers. Your are the best ones to judge.

"How beautiful a girl she is!" is correct, but it appears only in literature. In spoken English: "What a beautiful girl she is!"

You can also say, "She is very attractive".

Sounds kind of like a soliloquy, though.
