LESSON 3: ADJECTIVES & POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES

Review: What are objective pronouns?

How many objective pronouns are there?
A. Theories:
1. Adjectives:
 Tính từ (adjective, được viết tắt là adj) là những từ, dùng để miêu tả các đặc
tính, tính chất của sự vật, hiện tượng,…
 Ví dụ:
Tính từ miêu tả về con người: beautiful (xinh đẹp), handsome (đẹp trai), kind (tử
tế),…
Tính từ miêu tả về sự vật: small (nhỏ), big (lớn), expensive (đắt),…
 Tính từ thường đứng trước danh từ:
It’s a beautiful day. (Nó là một ngày đẹp.)
They’re very friendly people. (Họ là những người thân thiện.)
It’s an expensive restaurant. (Nó là một nhà hàng đắt tiền.)
 Tính từ có thể theo sau động từ to be, look (trông)...
My teacher is very young. (Thầy giáo của tôi thì rất trẻ.)
My teacher looks handsome. (Thầy giáo của tôi trông đẹp trai.)
 Một tính từ thì không thay đổi, nó luôn ở đúng dạng dù danh từ số nhiều
hay số ít:
a clever girl clever girls
a smart boy smart boys

2. Possessive adjectives:
- Sau tính từ sở hữu là 1 danh từ.\
That’s my daughter.
Is this your book.
This is her office.
 I’ve got their phone number.
