Does an adjective modify a noun or verb?

An adjective modifies a noun or pronoun.

Here's why:

* Adjectives describe or give more information about nouns and pronouns. They tell us what kind, how many, or which one.

For example:

* The *red* car (Red describes the car)

* She is *beautiful* (Beautiful describes she)

While adjectives can sometimes appear near verbs, they don't modify them directly. Instead, they often modify the object of the verb.

For example:

* He painted a *colorful* mural. (Colorful describes mural, the object of the verb "painted")
