Parts of Speech (Adjective)
Hello everyone!
Let's continue reading about Parts of Speech.
Today we will read about, "Adjectives".
What is an Adjective?
An adjective is a word that describes an animal, person, thing, or thought. Adjectives include words that describe what something looks like and what it feels like to touch, taste, or smell. Adjectives can be colors or words that describe temperatures and sizes.
Any word that is used to describe a noun or a pronoun is called an adjective. They can specify quality, number or size of a noun or pronoun.
How to use them
We don't add s to the adjective when it's plural.
My brothers are short.
We've got three black cats.
She watched some old films.
Put size adjectives before color adjectives.
I've got a big, blue ball.
That building is tall and grey.

Hello everyone!! 👋👋
Let's read about Black Friday!🛒
One of the biggest shopping days of the year has brought out millions of bargain hunters across the world. The day is called Black Friday.
What is Black Friday?🛍🛍
Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving. It is the first day of the Christmas shopping season. Christmas is the biggest holiday in the US and in many other countries around the world. In the US, many stores have big sales on Black Friday and a lot of people get really excited about shopping on this day. ✨
Real and online stores offer discounts of up to 70 per cent on thousands of items. It is traditionally a big shopping day in the USA, but four years ago it crossed the Atlantic and is now huge in the U.K. It has become so popular in Britain that police had to be called to four supermarkets just after midnight on Friday (the bargains went on sale at one minute past midnight). Police were worried about shoppers getting crushed in the crowds. A police spokesman said: "Officers have worked with store staff to ensure that sale-goers were able to enter and exit the stores safely." 🏬
