Tips
It is sometimes said that the adjective is the enemy of the noun. This is because, very often, if we use the precise noun we don't need an adjective. For example, instead of saying "a large, impressive house" (2 adjectives + 1 noun) we could simply say "a mansion" (1 noun). |
Adjectives: Comparative |
| |
| An adjective is a word that tells us more
about a noun. (By "noun" we include pronouns and noun phrases.) An adjective
"qualifies" or "modifies" a noun (a big dog). Adjectives
can be used before a noun (I like Chinese food) or after certain
verbs (It is hard). We can often use two or more adjectives
together (a beautiful young French lady). |
