Question

what a adjective?

can someone put this word in a sentences correctly as adjective


Bad

Answer 1

ANYTHING that modifies or describes a noun or pronoun is an ADJECTIVE. It could be a word, a phrase, a clause. Function is the key!! If the word, phrase, or clause functions as an adjective (modifies or s=describes a noun or pronoun) then it is an adjective.

Example: (one word) John is a very handsome boy. Handsome modifies boy and is therefore an adjective.

Example (phrase) The girl with brown hair is Mary. With brown hair is a phrase that modifies girl and therefore is FUNCTIONING as an adjective.

Example: (clause) The girl who has brown hair is Mary. Who has brown hair is a clause that modifies ther noun Mary. Therefore, it is an adjective (clause).

I hope this helps.

We use an adjective with a noun to diminish the that technique of the noun. The adjective qualifies the noun. some adjectives tells what form, as an social gathering, heavy.Heavy is an adjective of high quality. Adjectives of volume tell what percentage, as an social gathering, twenty,8 and so on. Demonstrative adjectives are like, this that, those and those. Interrogative adjectives are used with nouns to ask questions eg. what, which.

Answer 4

An adjective is a part of speech which modifies a noun, usually describing it or making its meaning more specific. However, adjectives are not a universally recognized word class; in other words, some languages do not have any adjectives. The Chinese languages, for example, have no adjectives; all the words that are translated into English as adjectives are, in fact, stative verbs.

The most widely recognized adjectives are those words, such as big, old, and tired that actually describe people, places, or things. These words can themselves be modified with adverbs, as in the phrase very big.

The articles a, an, and the and possessive nouns, such as Mary's, are classified as adjectives by some grammarians. However, such classification may be specific to one particular language. Other grammarians call such noun modifiers determiners. Similarly, possessive adjectives, such as his or her, are sometimes called determinative possessive pronouns, and demonstrative adjectives, such as this or that, determinative demonstratives.

In some languages, participles are used as adjectives. Examples of participles used as adjectives are lingering in the phrase lingering headache and broken in the phrase broken toys. Nouns which modify other nouns are sometimes called modifying nouns, nouns used adjectivally, or just part of a compound noun (like the word ice in ice cream).
