Cuál es el buen orden de los adjetivos? El orden de los adjetivos en inglés varía según la función que realiza cada adjetivo. El orden habitual es: cantidad, valor/opinión, tamaño, temperatura, edad, forma, color, origen, material.
El orden general de los adjetivos antes de un sustantivo o grupo de sustantivos es el siguiente: Determinante + observación + descripción física (tamaño, forma, edad, color) + origen + material + cualidad + NOMBRE
1/ Sentence Practice
Is that a grammar book that you are reading?
Yes, I am reading about adjectives. Adjectives describe things. They generally come in front of nouns.
They have one form and do not change for singular and plural or before masculine and feminine nouns.
Adjectives respect a certain hierarchy. The order in which they appear is not random:
Opinion/quality.
- Size.
- Age.
- Shape.
- Temperature.
- Colour.
- Where it comes from.
- What it is made of.
- What it is for.
