Adjectives
An adjective is a word that describes a noun or a pronoun.
Examples:
They live in a big house.
She is very clever.
In the first example above, the adjective "big" is describing the noun "house", and in the second example, the adjective "clever" is describing the pronoun "she".
In English an adjective usually sits before a noun.
Examples:
I don't like cold weather very much.
I don't know the right answer.
We can also use an adjective without a noun, after the verb be (am / is / are / was / were).
Examples:
His parents are young.
It's very modern.
Remember that adjectives do not change before a plural noun.
Examples:
a comfortable armchair
many comfortable armchairs
a tall manthree tall men
a friendly dogtwo friendly dogs
