feelings. We use what in exclamatory sentences:
 What + a / an + adjective + N (singular countable) + S



 Example: What a naughty boy he is!

What + adjective + N (uncountable/ plural countable) + S + V!
  Example:

- What naughty boys they are!
- What beautiful weather it is!
 We don't always use an adjective or a subject and a verb in
exclamatory sentences. 
 Example: What a day!

*Make exclamatory sentences.

What a handsome man (he is)!
2. interesting / game
What an interesting game (it is)!
