Adjectives

We can use adjectives to describe people, places and things.

How to use them

We don't add s to the adjective when it's plural.

My brothers are short.

We've got three black cats.
She watched some old films.
Put size adjectives before colour adjectives.

Adverbs
We can use adverbs to describe how somebody does something.

I speak English well.

We try to do our homework correctly.

How to use them

To make adverbs, we normally add ly to the adjective. Sometimes the spelling is
different.

She ran quickly.

They sang beautifully.
The children are playing happily.
I dance terribly.

Some adverbs don't have ly.
