What are Adjectives in English Grammar?

Here's a breakdown:

Descriptive Adjectives: These adjectives describe the qualities or states of being of nouns. Examples include colors (like "blue," "green"), sizes (like "big," "small"), and qualities (like "happy," "sad").

Quantitative Adjectives: They indicate the quantity or amount of a noun. Examples include "many," "few," "several."

Demonstrative Adjectives: These adjectives point out specific nouns. Examples are "this," "that," "these," "those."

Possessive Adjectives: They show ownership or possession. Examples include "my," "your," "his," "her."

Interrogative Adjectives: Used in questions, these adjectives modify nouns. Examples are "which," "what," "whose."

Indefinite Adjectives: These adjectives describe nouns in a vague or general sense. Examples include "any," "many," "few," "several."

Comparative and Superlative Adjectives: Comparative adjectives compare two things (e.g., "bigger," "smarter"), while superlative adjectives show the extreme or highest degree (e.g., "biggest," "smartest").

In sentences, adjectives usually come before the noun they modify, but they can also come after a linking verb like "be," "seem," or "appear." For example:

• Descriptive: "The tall building."
• After a linking verb: "The building is tall."

It is important to practice both recognizing and using adjectives within sentences to enrich their communication skills and to understand descriptions provided in English.
