a.      Nouns and Adjectives

As you know, noun is a thing, a place, or a person, an animal, while adjective is a word that
describes a noun. An adjective that describes a noun is called a modifier. A noun that goes with a
modifier is called a noun phrase. Noun phrases consist of a head noun that is described by one or
more adjectives before that. Observe where the position of the modifier is.

For example:

Adjectives              nouns              noun phrases

Beautiful                bird                  beautiful bird

Unique                   monkey           unique monkey

Enormous               nose                 enormous nose

Pristine                  jungle              pristine jungle

If we want to give more information, we can add more modifiers to the thing (noun) we describe.
For instance, in addition to the opinion adjectives, we can also inform the size, and the color,
the age, and nationality of the thing (noun).

Observe the following examples. Pay attention to the order of the modifiers. Where is the
position of the opinion adjectives?

Example:

A beautiful old tree   → opinion age noun

A beautiful reddish leaf → opinion color noun

A beautiful Indonesian island → opinion nationality noun

The following is the common word order of adjectives before a noun.

Determiner Opinion Size Age Color Nationality Materials Noun

An Impressive large Old purple Chinese Ceramic vase

A beautiful young dark Indonesian girl

the crystal sea, coupled with sandy white beaches against a backdrop of a clear blue sky are key
elements representing the unabridged of it’s natural beauty.

Sea Turtles can also be seen gliding beneath the surface of the water. As a testing ground
for turtles, depending on the time of year, visitors can observe the turtles climbing the beach at
night to lay their eggs, or watch as the tiny hatchlings make the journey back to the ocean.

Famous for their tropical charm, most beaches in Lampung region have for now managed
to retain their natural beauty. Soft white sands followed by sparkling turquoise waters, and
though coral isn’t on the list of Kiluan’s delights, you will find that it’s underwater park is still
abundant in marine life. Swimming and snorkeling can be done just off the shore, or simply relax
