An adjective is a word that means an attribute of a thing, and it adds information to a noun. An adjective is almost always placed before a noun in English. Beautiful, tasty, and good-looking are all adjectives.
a word used to describe somebody or something, for example The blue table, the happy child. When a phrase is used to describe something, it is known as an ‘adjectival phrase’ (‘as old as you’). A clause which does the work of an adjective is sometimes called an adjectival clause, but more often it is called a relative clause.

An adjective is a word that modifies a noun. The test for an adjective is to ask the question - -- which one, what kind, or how many. In the sentence, the big dog chased the white cat. The word big answers the questions- - - which one, and the question what kind, therefore it's an adjective. The same with the word white. It tells which one and what kind.
If the word answers the question how, when, or where - - - it's an adverb.
