GRAMMAR Order of adjectives
Sometimes we use more than one adjective to describe a noun. When we use more than one adjective, we use the following
order: opinion, size, shape, color. When we use several adjectives to describe the same noun, we generally do not use commas
to separate them:
A big blue notebook. e:::>
A medium-sized rectangular box. Q L\
A delitious big red apple.
Note: When we use several adjectives, we always place opinions (delicious) before facts (big / red).
