Grammar - Adjectives

 

4. Formation of Degrees of Adjectives

Adjectives in English have three Degrees  (levels):

Positive: Describes a quality without comparing. Example: "It's a good book."

Comparative: Compares two things. Use "-er" or "more" before the adjective. Example: "This book is better than that one."

Superlative: Compares more than two things, indicating the highest degree. Use "-est" or "most" before the adjective. Example: "It's the best book on the shelf." Understanding these levels helps express differences and preferences.

In this video lesson, we can easily understand how differently the degrees are formed.

5. Order of Adjectives

In English, adjectives are used to describe and modify nouns. When multiple adjectives are used together to describe the same noun, there is a specific order in which they should appear. This order is often referred to as the "order of adjectives." The general sequence is given in this video with a nice code to easily remember by the name 'DOSSACOMP'.
