Online Education for Order of Adjectives Exercises for Class 4 CBSE with Answers
Sometimes several adjectives are used to describe a single noun or pronoun. When you use two or more adjectives, the usual order is:
size, quality, colour, origin, substance.
Example:
- a small green plastic box
- size colour substance
- a stylish red Italian car
- quality colour origin
Here are more examples.
- A large Indian temple
- A tall white stone building
- A colourful cotton shirt
- A long Chinese silk robe
Adjectives of quality sometimes come before adjectives of size. For example:
- beautiful Song hair
- elegant short hair
But adjectives of size always come before adjectives of colour. For example:
- beautiful Song black hair
- elegant short red hair
If you use any adjective of substance, it comes after the colour adjective.
For example:
- A beautiful long black silk dress
