COMMON MISTAKES

ADJECTIVES
A very common mistake that most of you usually make is adding an -s to the adjectives when they go with a plural noun. So, it is advisable that you remember and follow these rules:


1. Adjectives describe nouns. The adjective is always invariable.
Example: beautiful trees, they are happy
Be careful!
  • Adjectives don't have a singular and plural form OR a masculine, femine and neuter form.
  • Adjectives are always the same! Never add a final -s to an adjective.
  • Adjectives can also be placed at the end of a sentence if they describe the subject of a sentence. Example: My doctor is excellent.
NOT!!: difficults books

2. Adjectives are placed before the noun.
Example: a wonderful book very interesting people
Be careful!
  • Don't place an adjective after the noun
NOT!!: an apple red
