Welcome to this tutorial.
Today we're going to talk about descriptive adjectives.
Let's get started.
Remember that an adjective is a word or set of words that modifies In other words describes a noun or
pronouns.
Note that adjectives may come before or after the words they modify as in the example over here this
is a cute cat.
The adjective cute describes the noun cat and it comes before the noun and in the sentence.
This cat is cute.
Again the adjective cute modifies or describes the noun cat but it comes after the noun.
Note that descriptive adjectives describe nouns or pronouns in detail by giving an attribute to that
particular word remember that they usually express things through the five senses touch taste sight
smell and sound a look at the example over here.
This is a delicious sandwich.
Now the adjective delicious modifies or describes the taste of the sandwich.
Note that descriptive adjectives can be organized into the following categories.
A simple adjectives are the most basic type of descriptive adjectives.
Have a look at the example below.
It was a beautiful day yesterday.
Clear sky Sweet Smell of blossoming trees green grass cheerful people.
It seemed as if the world had united to celebrate the coming of spring.
Note that the adjective beautiful describes the day clear describes the sky Sweet Smell of blossoming
trees green color of the grass cheerful feeling of the people
b compound adjectives are created when two words are combined to create a descriptive adjective.
Now the two words are typically connected with a hyphen since the example below Pam was a baby faced
long legged girl baby faced and long legged are adjectives that describe the girl and they are connected
with a hyphen.
