Adjectives
Adjectives can tell the reader how much – or how many – of something you’re talking about, which thing you want passed to
you, or which kind you want, If you are using multiple adjectives which are commonly put together, there’s no need for a
comma between the adjectives, If the adjectives aren’t usually used together, separate them with a comma or conjunction.
Adjectives usually go before the noun (e.g. small child) unless one of the following verbs are involved: be, feel, taste, smell,
sound, look, appear, seem. In these cases, the adjectives work more like adverbs.
