I'm having a debate on IG.

In Italian the meaning you want to convey can change depending on whether an adjective is placed before or after the noun.

Diverse persone : SEVERAL people
Persone diverse : DIFFERENT people

Buona amica : REAL friend
Amica buona : KIND friend

Now someone is saying that it's the same in #French as well and I couldn't disagree more.

"Personnes différentes" & "différentes personnes" mean the exact same thing however this person contends that one means "different" while the other means "each/every".

I say wrong.!

Now I have no issues with being corrected if I'm wrong although in this case I'm pretty sure I'm not.

If there is a case in French where "différents" can mean "several/each/every" please let me know.
