Adjectives

When we talk about people, places or things, sometimes we want to describe their quality, size, shape or color. The words we use to describe objects or people or places are called Adjectives.

Adjectives are also called describing words because they tell us something more about a naming word. It describes the color, size, shape, feeling, quantity, age taste etc.

e.g.

  • Sania is very fat.
  • There were seven players in his team.
  • She wore a red dress.
  • The orange is round.
  • I am ten years old.
  • The giraffe has a long neck.
  • It was a bright morning.
  • It is a windy day.
  • It was a cold and dark night.
  • Tigers prey on smaller animals.
Note: Adjectives only modify nouns, pronouns,  noun phrases or noun clauses.
