Descriptive Adjectives  

Descriptive Adjectives

Descriptive adjectives are the words used to describe nouns or pronouns. They tell us the characteristics of the noun/pronoun they go with - such as: shape, color, size, or appearance.

A descriptive adjective agrees in gender (masculine, feminine) and number (singular, plural) with the noun/pronoun it modifies.

Example:
Esta camisa es muy bonita.
This shirt is very pretty.
Hay muchas camisas muy bonitas.
There are a lot of very pretty shirts.

Notice that adjectives are usually placed after the noun/pronoun.

Febrero es un mes corto.
February is a short month.
Creemos que ella es bonita.
We think that she is pretty.
Es un día terrible.
It is a terrible day.
Ellos son los más feos de la escuela.
They are the ugliest in the school.
Me gustan los zapatos de tacón alto.
I like the high heel shoes.
