What does adjective mean?

An adjective is a word that describes or modifies a noun or pronoun. It tells us more about the noun or pronoun by adding information about its qualities, size, shape, color, origin, etc.

Here are some key points about adjectives:

* They answer questions like:

* What kind? (e.g., red car)

* Which one? (e.g., the third house)

* How many? (e.g., five apples)

* How much? (e.g., expensive shoes)

* They can be placed before or after the noun they modify:

* Beautiful flowers / The flowers are beautiful.

* They can be used in comparative and superlative forms:

* Big, bigger, biggest

* Good, better, best

Examples:

* The tall tree. (Describes the height of the tree)

* That delicious pizza. (Describes the taste of the pizza)

* Three students. (Describes the quantity of students)

* A blue sky. (Describes the color of the sky)

In essence, adjectives add detail and color to our language, making it more descriptive and engaging.
