Hi
1. It is fun for me to play online games.
2. It is enjoyable for me to play online games.

So fun is a noun for number 1 and enjoyable is an adjective for number 2. The meaning for both sentences is the same isn't it?
In what cases can fun be an adjective?
Thanks, Fulvio

That's from an English book:

"Perfect Partner: Good-looking, good fun and good to talk to".

I guess :"fun" is an adjective here?
Why the "good" was used?
Is "funny" most appropriate to be used for people?

Can "good" modify adjectives? I would have said that "fun" is a noun there.
