Grammar


Notes
An adjective describes people, animals or things. They can tell us about their colour,
size and shape.
©PAN ASIA PUBLICATIONS
An adjective goes before a noun, not after it. Colour adjectives come after adjectives
of size and shape.
Example: a green mango; a hairy rambutan; big, round and red apples



Rewrite each sentence putting the adjectives in brackets in the correct
position.


1. He has a father. (rich)



2. The trees bear mangoes. (yellow huge round)




3. He gave her a rose. (well-shaped red large)



4. They live in a house. (cosy)




5. Sam is a boy. (diligent)




6. Gardening is not work. (difficult)




7. In an exam do the questions first. (easy)



8. Jane has hair. (long)




9. She bought a plant. (spreading tall green)




10. The girl blushes easily. (timid)
