A Post about Adjective

Adjectives

  • Adjectives are describing words. They describe nouns and pronouns. 

Kinds of Adjectives

(All bold words are adjectives, while the underlined ones are the words they modify.)
  • Descriptive Adjective (Qualitative Adjective) - Descriptive adjectives are used to describe nouns and pronouns.
Examples: The big tree is growing an unidentified fruit.
                  Ezekiel has a lovely smile.
  • Quantitative Adjective -  describes the quantity of something. They answer the question “how much?” or “how many?” 
Examples: I have one fruit left.
                  Several children are coming to the party.
                  Basti has many chocolates in his bag.

NOTE: Notice that adjectives are always before the noun or the word it describes.  

  • Demonstrative Adjective - this describes WHICH pronoun or noun you are referring to.
Examples: This mango tree is ours.
                   That fish is swimming energetically.
  • Possessive Adjective  - it describes to whom something belongs to.
Examples: That is my pen.
                  Our dog is named Whitney.
