This document defines and provides examples of adjectives. Adjectives are used to describe nouns and pronouns by indicating their shape, size, color, texture, taste, or other characteristics. Adjectives can be placed before or after nouns, or after linking verbs to complete sentences. Examples are given such as "little blue book" and "big elephant" to demonstrate how adjectives modify nouns, and "rocks are rough" and "sky is clear" to show their use after linking verbs.
