Adjective order
grammar game
What is the correct order of adjectives before a noun ?

1. Adjectives of color, origin, material and
purpose usually go in that order.
{Color _origin _material_ purpose _noun} red
e.g.:
Spanish leather riding boots
e.g.: A brown German beer mug
e.g.: A Venetian glass flower vase
Other adjectives usually go before words of colour, origin, .2
material and purpose. It is impossible to give exact rules, but
adjectives of size, length and height often come first.
The round glass table (NOT the glass round table)
A big, modern brick house (NOT a modern, big brick house)
Long, flexible steel poles
A tall, ancient oak-tree
• 3. Adjectives which express judgments or attitudes usually
come before all others.
• Examples are lovely, definite, pure, absolute, extreme, perfect,
wonderful, silly.
• A lovely, long, cool drink
• Who's that silly fat man over there?
4. Numbers usually go before adjectives.
---Six large eggs
---The second big shock
---First, next and last most often go before one,
two, three etc.
The first three days My last two jobs."
• 5- Age, which would normally go after adjectives of
size, length and height, but before colour, origin,
material and purpose.
• A big old straw hat.
• A charming young university student.
Thus, a complete list could be:
(article) + number + judgment/attitude +
size, length, height + age + colour +
origin + material + purpose + noun
• a lovely long black leather coat
• a valuable Dutch Impressionist painting
• a rustic old stone holiday cottage
