How do you describe her?




                   DIANA ADAM

Can you make a complete
 sentence with your
What is an
 adjective?
Why do we use adjective?
We often use adjectives to give
  more information about
   things / people (nouns)
For example:             JIM CARREY
   He is a man.

 What kind of man is he?



He is a crazy man.
We can also compare
nouns by using the
comparative and
superlative forms of an
adjective.
Adjective
Comparatives are used to
compare two
things/people.

    What are the basic
         rules?
