That was so unpleasant. (so + adjective)

Not: That was such unpleasant.

Compare

so + adjective	such + noun phrase

So but not such can also be used in front of much, many, little, few to add emphasis:

So much food was wasted every day.

Not: Such much food was wasted …

Not: Those are so cool shoes.

• We use such, not so, before a noun phrase with the indefinite articlea/an:
