ADJECTIVES BEFORE
NOUNS
ADJECTIVES BEFORE NOUNS
Adjectives usually go before 
the nouns they modify.
•He is an intelligent boy.
•That was a clever idea.
Adjectives only after condition
verbs
Some adjectives are almost always only used after condition
verbs.
• He has written about the animal
which is alive.
• The man felt unhappy.
Few adjectives can be used
immediately after a noun.
Available, imaginable, possible and suitable are few of
the adjectives which can be used just before a noun.
However we use these adjectives just after the nouns only
when the noun follows words such as first, last, next, only
and superlative adjectives.
Examples:
• It is the only treatment suitable.
• It is an offer available only to the club members.
• It is the only solution imaginable to overcome this problem.
• It is the only possible route that we could take.
Verb + object + adjective
. Changes in meaning because of
position
Examples:
• The Sun beat down on us all day.
• This product does not deserve this price.
• He asked me my address.
• This girl was ill for a month.
• No two people are.
• The man was treated in the ward.
• It is the only solution to overcome this problem.
• It is the only that we could take.
