This can be a trap for those trying to translate literally -- the French would say something more like you are amusing, which would be t'es amusant.

You'd probably hear a real Frenchman say "T'es amusant, toi!" They like repeating words for emphasis (you're funny, you!). This would be said to someone you know, since the language is informal. It's acceptable to say to any of your peers. And don't forget to tell them that they are "amusante" with an "e" if it's a lady friend! In this form, you would pronounce the formerly silent "T".

Informal (friends, siblings, little kids etc.): "Tu es bête." Formal (strangers, parents, teachers, elders, etc. [which wouldn't really be used with this sentence...]) ;) "Vous êtes bête."

Rire.

Present: Je ris, tu ris, il rit, nous rions, vous riez, ils rient.

And the noun is: le rire.
