Adjectives and the Words They Modify
An adjective modifies a noun or a pronoun. An adjective tells what kind, which one, how many, or how much.
- WHAT KIND green eyes, French perfume
- WHICH ONE these pencils, last page
- HOW MANY six erasers, few pennies
- HOW MUCH some sand, enough sauce
A, an, and the are the most frequently used adjectives. They are called articles.
