Hi kids, today we will learn about adjectives. These

are words that describe people, places, animals or
things.
At the end of the lesson, you will be able to identify
adjectives and use them in sentences to speak and
write descriptively.Adjectiv
es
DEFINITIO
Adjectives are describing words
N that tell us more about the people
or things they describe. There are many adjectives which we can
use to make our stories more interesting.
EXAMPLE
The bear walked into the cave.
The huge, brown bear walked into
the big, dark cave.
Which of the two sentences sounds more interesting?

Why do you say so?
A. DESCRIPTIVE ADJECTIVES
Damp clothes
EXAMPLE
Untidy
desk
Smelly
apple core
Stained Messy Disorganized

book painting kit cupboard
Wow! There are many adjectives in Dirty Diva’s room.
9
DEFINITIO
N about the color, shape, size, age and
Descriptive adjectives tell us
condition of a noun.
1 Adjectives usually come before the nouns that they describe.
Color Size Material
the blue sky a tiny hairpin a wooden spoon
a yellow submarine an enormous burger the gold ring
a pink rose a colossal monument an enamel bathtub
We do not always have to put an adjective first. Some adjectives can be

2
placed after a verb. These verbs include be, seem, appear, feel and
sound.
Lizzie is messy.
Our new teacher seems nice.
The problem appears serious.
Ammu feels confident she will win the race.
Your plan sounds good to me.
3 Sometimes, we may want to use more than one adjective to

describe something.
a cute little puppy

an old plastic bottle
a modern, paper and glass structure
a huge, long, black and yellow African snake
10
4 When we use more than one adjective to describe a noun, we need to
place the adjectives in the right order. This table shows us the correct
order of adjectives.
quality or opinion gorgeous, awful, happy, nice, bossy, warm, handsome
size huge, small, tall, short, towering, fat, skinny, slender
age ancient, new, modern, two-month-old
shape circular, triangular, rectangular, square
color black, brown, yellow, white, pink
nationality or origin Egyptian, Australian, Thai, Vietnamese
material paper, plastic, metal, wooden, glass
EXAMPL
E
Jhus is a beautiful, young, green mermaid who lives in a kingdom at
the bottom of the ocean.
The Great Pyramid is a grand, towering, ancient structure.
A pretty, young, fair maiden chased the ugly, short, old Norwegian
witch.
B. Forming Adjectives
EXAMPL
E
Oh, there is a Yes, the floor
lot of dust! is very dusty.
11
1 We usually form adjectives from other words like nouns, verbs or
other adjectives.
From Adjectives
love (noun/verb) lovable
grace (noun) graceful
imagine (verb) imaginary
excite (verb) exciting
lone (adjective) lonely
red (adjective) reddish
We usually add a group of letters to the end of a word when forming

2
an adjective. These are called suffixes.
Suffixes Adjectives
-y messy, funny, dirty
-ly lonely, weekly, friendly
-ary primary, secondary, imaginary
-able lovable, admirable, agreeable
-al musical, national, natural
-ed astonished, excited, bored
-en golden, wooden, rotten
-ful wonderful, playful, beautiful
-less careless, hopeless, cheerless
-ic cubic, artistic, atomic
-ing shocking, boring, exciting
-ish brownish, childish, Scottish
-ive expensive, creative, destructive
-ous famous, marvellous, nervous
-some quarrelsome, troublesome, meddlesome
12
3 Some words can be used to form more than one type of adjective.
What is the difference between exciting and excited?

We can see that the -ed and -ing suffixes produce two
adjectives from the verb excite: exciting and excited. These
adjectives do not have the same meaning, even though they
come from the same word.
Adjectives ending in –ing, such as exciting, boring or interesting,

describe what we think about something or someone.
It was such an exciting film.

The tennis match was very boring.
I am reading an interesting book about space at the
moment.
Adjectives ending in -ed such as excited, bored or interested

describe our own or another person’s feelings.
They were so excited to see the film.

We felt bored while watching the tennis match.
I am interested in books about space.
4 Some adjectives are formed from two words. These are known as
compound adjectives.
That vase is handmade so it is rather special.

Pemba wears such old-fashioned clothes.
The blonde-haired boy is a keen cyclist.
She has a two-year-old brother.
My mother needs to wear glasses because she is long-sighted.
13
5 Sometimes, we can use a noun as an adjective.
EXAMPL
E
We use a cane to make The cobra jumped out of the cane

baskets. basket.
(The word cane in this (The word cane in this sentence
sentence is a noun.) is used as an adjective.)
Here are more examples of nouns used as adjectives.
Robin Hood stole from the rich to give to the poor. (The
words rich and poor in this sentence are nouns.)
The woman driving the car is very rich while the man
wearing rags is very poor.
(The words rich and poor in this sentence are adjectives.)
• Adjectives are describing words that make sentences more

interesting.
SUMMARY • They can be used before a noun or after a verb.
• When we use more than one adjective, it must be arranged
in the correct order.

COMPARISON OF
2 ADJECTIVES
26
EXPLAIN
universe
Hi kids, today we will learn about adjectives that are

used to compare two or more things. These are
called comparative and superlative adjectives.
By the end of the lesson, you will be able to correctly

identify and compare adjectives.
C . C O M PA R I S O N O F A D J E C T I V E S
EXAMPLE
I am stronger I am the
I am strong. than you. strongest of all.
DEFINITION
We can use adjectives to compare two or more people, places or things.
These adjectives are known as comparative and superlative
adjectives.
1 We use the adjective in its base form when we are not making any
comparisons.
Zoka is strong.
2 We use the comparative form of the adjective to compare two people,

places or things.
Drago is stronger than Zoka.
3 We use the superlative to compare more than two people, places or

things.
Captain Spark is the strongest of all.
27
Here is another example of comparison.
In winter, the weather in the Black Desert is cold.

In winter, the weather in the Shallow Creek is colder than in
the Black Desert.
In winter, the weather is coldest in the Stormy Sea.
Do you notice a pattern in how to form comparative and superlative
adjectives?
add -er to the end of the adjective in the base

comparative adjective
form
add -est to the end of the adjective in the base
superlative adjective
form
Base Comparative Superlative
fast faster fastest
nice nicer nicest

REMEMBER
slow slower slowest
We sometimes have to
pretty prettier prettiest change the ending of
the adjective before we
clean cleaner cleanest add -er or -est.
In general, when the base form of an adjective is a word that is

longer than two syllables, we form comparative and superlative
adjectives by adding the words more/less or most/least before the
base form.
more intelligent most intelligent

intelligent
less intelligent least intelligent
more beautiful most beautiful
beautiful
less beautiful least beautiful
more difficult most difficult
difficult
less difficult least difficult
28
Here are more examples of comparison.
Ammu is more obedient than Simba.
Simba is less obedient than Ammu.
Lizzie is the most obedient student.

Zoka is the least obedient student.
Some adjectives have irregular forms and do not follow the regular pattern of
forming comparative and superlative adjectives.
good better best
bad worse worst
far further/farther furthest/farthest
much/many more most
little less least
Here are some examples using irregular forms.
I am good at drawing, but I think Jhus is better

than I am. However, Pemba is the best in our class
at drawing.
Poha's behaviour is bad, but Daka's behaviour is worse.

Zinka's behaviour is the worst of all.
Shallow Creek is quite far from the Golden Beach, but the
Brown Plateau is further and the Black Desert is the
furthest of all.
Captain Spark does not have much money. Roxy has more
money than Captain Spark, and Drago has the most. So
Captain Spark has the least money of all because he has
less than the others.

Although we usually use adjectives to describe nouns, we can also use

nouns to describe other nouns. In this case, the nouns behave like
adjectives and are placed before the nouns to be described.
• Clarissa works in a bicycle shop.

• What a touching love story this is!

The real noun is in the plural, and not the noun behaving as an
adjective.
 Computer shops.
 Apple pies.
× Computers shop.
× Apples pie.
However, plural-looking nouns remain unchanged.
• One news reporter.

• One sports hall.
• Two news reporters.
• Three sports halls.
We can use several nouns that behave as an adjective before a noun.
• The honey turkey ham is delectable!

• The Singapore soccer team coach is training the players.
We can use an adjective before nouns that behave as an adjective to

describe a noun.
• The delicious orange juice was sold out almost immediately!
