What is an adjective in a sentence?

An adjective is a word that describes a noun or pronoun. It tells us more about the noun or pronoun's qualities, characteristics, or appearance.

Here's an example:

The *big* red ball bounced high.

In this sentence, the adjective "big" describes the noun "ball." The adjective "red" also describes the noun "ball."

Here are some other examples:

* The sparkling water was refreshing. ("sparkling" describes "water")

* She wore a beautiful dress. ("beautiful" describes "dress")

* He was a tall man. ("tall" describes "man")

* The delicious cake was gone in seconds. ("delicious" describes "cake")
