Here's a breakdown:
* Adjectives: These are words that describe nouns. They tell us more about the subject's qualities or characteristics.
* Example: "The big dog barked loudly." ("Big" modifies the subject "dog")
* Adjective Phrases: These are groups of words that act like adjectives. They also describe the subject.
* Example: "The dog with the floppy ears barked loudly." ("With the floppy ears" modifies the subject "dog")
