The later is, I guess quite commonly used, “(Noun)很(Adj)”. Is is just a colloquial difference? Or is there anything else I don’t know yet? ------------------ My answer for this question is that. I think this is really typical and formal enough of using “(Noun)很(Adj)”. Like: This person is really professional= 這個人很專業 It's just a typical describing sentence I think. You need to confirm with your teacher though. :P I am not Mandarin pro.
