Hello, Beautiful World! 👋

Welcome to the one place to learn everything about Adjectives. Simple, fun, and plain English. Let's paint with words! 🎨

What is an Adjective? 🤔

Imagine you are describing a Pizza 🍕 to a friend over the phone. You can't just say "Pizza". You need to say:

Cheesy 🧀 Hot ♨️ Delicious 😋 Huge ⭕

"An adjective is a word that modifies or describes a noun (a person, place, or thing)."

The Adjective Zoo 🦁

Adjectives come in different "species". Explore the zoo below by clicking the tabs to see different types of adjectives. Most people only think of "Descriptive" ones, but there are more!

The Order Machine ⚙️

In English, you can't just throw adjectives in any order. There is a secret rule called OSASCOMP. Use the machine below to build a grammatically correct description!

Opinion → Size → Age → Shape → Color → Origin → Material → Purpose

1. Opinion

2. Size

3. Age

4. Shape

5. Color

6. Origin

7. Material

8. Purpose

Your Sentence:

"I bought a ... thing."

Comparison Station 📏

Adjectives change when we compare things. We call these degrees of comparison.

The 3 Rules:

1.
Short Words: Add -er or -est.
(Tall → Taller)
2.
Long Words: Use more or most.
(Beautiful → More beautiful)
3.
Irregulars: Totally change!
(Good → Better)
