Before we start giving you a vast list of adjectives to describe a person, You need to have a clear concept of the adjective. Right? Then here it is.
A “rotten” egg, a “cloudy” day, a “beautiful” lady, or a “tall,” “cold” glass of water are examples of adjectives that modify a noun (or pronoun) to make it more particular. Adjectives are used to give nouns personality or to express themselves effectively.
How do you identify an adjective in a sentence?
All you have to do is find the noun first when reading a phrase. Do you know some nouns that describe a person? Or how to identify a noun in a sentence?
The person, area or location, or thing that is the sentence’s topic is referred to as a noun. Then look to see whether there is a descriptive term immediately preceding the noun. If there is, it may be an adjective.
The adverbial adjectives are put in front of the noun. Predicative adjectives, on the other hand, are not put immediately after the noun. There is always a state verb between the adjective and the noun when the adjective comes after the noun.
