The Fifth Lesson Of Grammar:
THE ADJECTIVE:
The adjective (Latin adjectivum = added to ) describes, modifies, alters, specifies our understanding of a noun or pronoun.
Or in other words adjective is a word which is used to describe or modify a noun or pronoun.
1. Brilliant birds flew by. ( "Brilliant" describes and specifies the birds. 🐥)
2. The children are sad.😔 ( sad describes the children.)
3. The hippopotami, which were bathing 🛁 in the brook, drowned. ( The clause describes the hippopotami and is an adjective clause.)
4. Potatoes 🥔 from long Island 🏝 taste 😋 best. 👌 ( the phrase describes the Potatoes 🥔 and is an adjective phrase. )
5. Running up the stairs, Veronica tripped, fell down, broke her toe, and died. ( The phrase describes Veronica and is an adjective phrase. )
To identify the adjective, take a noun or pronoun and ask, "what kind?" And the answer, be it a word, phrase, or clause, is an adjective.
1. The woman with the purple snnod won the prize.
The underlined phrase describes the noun "woman" and answers the question, "what kind of woman?")
2. Those by the window 🪟 are the records which I need.
( the underlines phrases are adjective phrases. "By the window" answers the question, "what kind of those?" and "which I need" answers the question, "what kind of records?"
The articles (a, an, the ) are always adjectives.
In English, the normal position of the adjective is before the noun it modifiers:
The broken window 🪟 let in the cold 🥶 air.
Occasionally, to draw attention to the adjective, it may be misplaced after the noun, since anything after its ordinary place is noticed and stressed:
The window, 🪟 broken, let in the cold 🥶 air.
* adjective can locate before noun or after noun.
* adjective clause and adjective phrase located between subject and main verb.
COMPARISON OF ADJECTIVES:
Adjectives ( and adverbs ) have three degrees.
1. POSITIVE DEGREE: ( an adjective describes one thing and offers no comparison ):
Examples: sweet, fine, intelligent, beautiful)
2. COMPARATIVE DEGREE: ( an adjective compares two things only):
Examples: sweeter, finer, more intelligent, less beautiful.
( use "more" or "less" in the comparative degree if the adjective has more than two syllables; sometimes, either form is acceptable: costlier, more costly.)
3. SUPERLATIVE DEGREE: ( an adjective compares more than two things):
Examples: sweetest, finest, most intelligent, least beautiful.
( use "most" or "least" in the superlative degree if the adjective has more than two syllables.)
* Irregular comparatives:
good, better, best,Well, better, best
Night, Near, next
Bad, worse, Worst
Little, less, least.
*Absolute adjectives:
These adjectives never compare because they identify characteristics a person or thing either has or doesn't have; there are no degrees:
Dead alive
Pregnant full
Empty unique
Complete fatal perfect
*Avoid double comparatives or double superlatives:
Never use more than one form of the comparative or superlative degree in a sentence:
I am more happier than you. ❌
I am happier than you. ✅
This is the most sweetest fruit I ever tasted. ❌
This is the sweetest fruit I ever tested. ✅
