"chouette" is somewhat dated, and, while positive, it is has no sense of the superlative. It is closer to "cool." "génial" is still commonly used, but it is even more dated than "cool." I would translate it as "neat." The first reply took a few lines to get to it (and followed it with some serious language mistakes), but I think the best translation of the American slang term, "awesome," is the French word (and French pronunciation), "super." [American] awesome = [French] super I may not be sufficiently “au courant” to give an accurate translation of awesome, but I can say that:

I think you're right. For example:"<i><b>Quelles sont les destinations awesome 3 en Afrique ?</b></i>"</p> Google Translate said awesome in French is impressionnant. I think you're right.

Also, if you want to say to look awesome, it is ....avoir l'air super. Ex. Emilie avait l'air super toujours les temps! ou Emilie a l'air super. Hope this helps.
