Nouns and pronouns are modified by adjectives.

Here's a breakdown:

* Nouns: Words that name people, places, things, or ideas. (e.g., cat, house, happiness)

* Pronouns: Words that stand in for nouns. (e.g., he, she, it, they)

* Adjectives: Words that describe or modify nouns and pronouns, providing more information about them. (e.g., big cat, beautiful house, intense happiness)

Examples:

* The fluffy cat chased the red ball. (fluffy and red describe the cat and the ball)

* He is a kind person. (kind describes the pronoun "he")
