Define adjective and the ten kinds of adjectives with two examples of each ?
Answers
An adjective describes or modifies noun/s and pronoun/s in a sentence. It normally indicates quality, size, shape, duration, feelings, contents, and more about a noun or pronoun.
Adjectives usually provide relevant information about the nouns/pronouns they modify/describe by answering the questions: What kind? How many? Which one? How much? Adjectives enrich your writing by adding precision and originality to it.
Example:
The team has a dangerous batsman. (What kind?)
I have ten candies in my pocket. (How many?)
I loved that red car. (Which one?)
I earn more money than he does. (How much?)
