t e a
quality of the thing named, to indicate its quantity or extent, or to
specify a thing as distinct from something else. The word red in "the red
car" is an adjective.

1- Adjectives describe or modify—that is, they limit or restrict the meaning of—nouns

and pronouns. They may name qualities of all.
Kinds: huge, red, angry, tremendous, unique, rare, etc.

3-An adjective usually comes right before a noun: "a red dress," "fifteen people." When an
adjective follows a linking verb such as be or seem, it is called a predicate adjective: "That
building is huge," "The workers seem happy." Most adjectives can be used as predicate
adjectives, although some are always used before a noun. Similarly, a few adjectives can only
be used as predicate adjectives and are never used before a noun.

4- Some adjectives describe qualities that can exist in different amounts or degrees. To do this,
the adjective will either change in form (usually by adding -er or -est) or will be used with
words like more, most, very, slightly,  etc.: "the older girls," "the longest day of the year," "a 
very strong feeling," "more expensive  than that one." Other adjectives describe qualities that do
not vary—"nuclear  energy," "a medical doctor"—and do not change form.

5- The demonstrative adjectives (this, that, these, and those) are identical to the demonstrative  

pronouns. They are used to distinguish the person or thing being described from others of the
same category or class. This (Singular)  and these (plural), describe people or things that are
nearby, or in the present. That (Singular) and those (plural),are used to describe people or
things that are not here, not nearby, or in the past or future. These adjectives, like the definite
. and indefinite articles  (a, an, and the), always come before any other adjectives that modify a
noun.

6- An indefinite adjective describes a whole group or class of people or things, or a

person or thing that is not identified or familiar. The most common indefinite adjectives
are: all, another, any, both, each, either, enough, every, few, half, least, less, little, many,
more, most, much, neither, one  (and two, three, etc.), other, several, some, such, whole

7- The interrogative adjectives—primarily which, what, and whose—are used to

begin questions. They can also be used as interrogative pronouns.
Which horse did you bet on? = Which did you bet on?
What songs did they sing? = What did they sing?
Whose coat is this? = Whose is this? – Whose car is that? = Whose is that?

8- The possessive adjectives —my, your, his, her, its, our, their—tell you who has, owns,

or has experienced something, as in "I admired her candor, "Our cat is 14 years old," and
"They said their trip was wonderful."

9-Nouns often function like adjectives. When they do, they are called attributive nouns .
When two or more adjectives are used before a noun, they should be put in proper order.
Any article (a, an, the), demonstrative adjective ( that, these, etc.), indefinite adjective
(another, 
both, etc.), or possessive adjective ( her, our, etc.) always comes first.

10-If there is a number, it comes first or second. True adjectives always come before
attributive nouns. 9- The ordering of true adjectives will vary, but the following order is
the most common: opinion word→size→age→shape→color→nationality→material.

IV- WRITE A COMPOSITION USING 25 VERBS, 20 NOUNS AND 20 ADJECTIVES ABOUT

YOUR VIRTUAL LIFE CLASSES AT THE UNIVERSITY.

The virtual classes at the beginning were a bit difficult since I did not have the adequate means to
be able to give them and it was difficult for me to organize and attend them, the internet
connection was not very good and I always had to change places to receive these classes, it was
also very difficult to handle the applications for which we did the classes, there were always
problems with the audio or video, over time it improved a little, now it is easier to attend classes, I
managed to get an Internet service that works for me and so I can attend to my classes from
home, I no longer have the same problems with the applications, now you can record classes in
case you cannot attend and also to clarify these doubts that arise in the course, the classes have
been very good, it is as if the we were receiving in person, the teachers always also clarify all our
doubts and help us in what they can.
