What modifies nouns or proununs?

Adjectives modify nouns or pronouns.

Here's a breakdown:

* Nouns: Words that name people, places, things, or ideas. Examples: *dog*, *house*, *happiness*

* Pronouns: Words that replace nouns. Examples: *he*, *she*, *it*, *they*

* Adjectives: Words that describe nouns or pronouns. They tell us more about the noun or pronoun. Examples: *big*, *red*, *happy*, *beautiful*

Examples:

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

* She is a *talented* artist. (The adjective "talented" modifies the pronoun "she")

* I bought a *new* car. (The adjective "new" modifies the noun "car")
