Okay, adjectives, they seem pretty straight-forward but while doing my research I discovered, they're not so straight-forward. Today, however, we are just going to talk about the basics of adjectives, after all, I'm not a Grammarian, not yet!!!
Adjectives describes feelings or qualities, they are descriptive. An adjective is a word that describes, identifies, modifies, or quantifies something (a noun or a pronoun). In the phrase, "the black cat" the word black is an adjective because it describes the cat. Simple, right, Biff, I expect you not better than I, but maybe not.
In English, an adjective usually comes before the noun it pertains to (for example, a red apple or a cute cat.).
Adjectives can be classified into many categories. In English, adjectives are generally used in the order: quantity, >opinion, >size, >age, >shape, >color, >origin, >materia, >purpose. Some of these categories are (roughly in the order in which adjectives are used in English):
