What is adjective in a sentence?

An adjective is a word that describes a noun or pronoun. It tells us more about the person, place, thing, or idea that the noun or pronoun refers to.

Here's how to identify adjectives in a sentence:

* Ask "What kind?" or "Which one?" about the noun or pronoun. The answer will often be the adjective.

* Look for words that modify or describe the noun or pronoun.

Examples:

* The big dog barked loudly. (The adjective "big" describes the noun "dog")

* She wore a beautiful dress to the party. (The adjective "beautiful" describes the noun "dress")

* That delicious food is from the new restaurant. (The adjective "delicious" describes the noun "food")

Note: Adjectives can come before or after the noun they describe. They can also be used in compound form, like "bright red" or "deep blue."
