You can use ( The + some adjectives ) to talk about groups of people

1- Nationalities that end in:


- ch (the French, the Czech NOT Czechs)
- sh (the Spanish, the English, the British)
- ese (the Japanese)
- ss (the swiss)

most other nationality words are nouns and are used in the plural, e.g.:

- the Brazilians, Peruvians, Turks, South Koreans, Argentinians

2- to talk about specific groups of society, e.g.:


- the young, old/elderly, sick, blind, deaf, homeless, dead

 Notes When we use adjectives as nouns

2- We can use ( adjective + people ) to talk about a group of people ( we don’t add
the ), e.g.:
- poor people
- homeless people
- old people
- thai people

 Adjective order
 Always start with opinion, then description ( opinion adjective + description adjective )
 When we use description adjective + description adjective, we use the following order:

Opinion >> Size >> Age >> Shape >> Color >> Pattern >> Origin/Place >> Material

3- Such a/an + adjective + single countable noun ( that )
4- Such + adjective + uncountable / plural noun ( that )
