GRAMMAR ASPECT
When talking about something we enjoy, we can use specific words to emphasize its characteristics or make its meaning more specific.
These words are known as modifiers.
Modifiers refer to any word (or phrase) that functions as an adjective or adverb and helps us describe a word or elaborate further on its
meaning.

ORDER OF MODIFIERS
When trying to be extremely specific about what we’re describing, it is pretty common to find multiple modifiers before a noun. However, if we
want to use several modifiers at once, we have to follow a specific order.
Examples:
(My – determiner // First – ordinal // Few – quantifier // Beautiful – adjective (quality) // Antique – adjective (age) // Czech – adjective (origin) //
Sugar bowls – noun)
*** Notice that it is NOT NECESSARY to use all types of modifiers to describe an element. It’s just a matter of personal preference and the
amount of information/detail we want to give about what we’re describing. ***
