TYPES OF ADJECTIVES

The different types of adjectives are:


• ️Possessive Adjectives
• ️Interrogative Adjectives
• ️Demonstrative Adjectives
• ️Compound Adjectives
POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES:

These adjectives, like possessive pronouns, are used to show


or represent possession of a quality. For example: my, your,
his, her, their, its, whose, etc.
Example:
My car is parked outside.
INTERROGATIVE ADJECTIVES
An adjective that is used to modify a noun or a pronoun by asking a
question is called an interrogative adjective. There are only a few
adjectives that can be termed as interrogative adjectives. They are
whose, what and which.
Example:
Which phone do you use?
DEMONSTRATIVE ADJECTIVES:

Demonstrative adjectives are mainly used to describe the position of a subject (a


noun or pronoun) in space or time. This, that, these and those are the
demonstrative adjectives in English.
Example:
That building is so gorgeously decorated.(‘That’ refers to a singular noun far from
the speaker)
COMPOUND ADJECTIVES

adjectives consist of two or more adjectives that are combined


together to form an adjective that can be used to modify the subject.
Some examples of compound adjectives are cotton-tailed, curly-
haired, absent-minded, happy-go-lucky, etc.
Exampe:
I have a broken-down sofa.
DESCRIPTIVE ADJECTIVES:

A descriptive adjective is a word which describes nouns and pronouns. Most of the
adjectives belong in this type. These adjectives provide information and attribute to
the nouns/pronouns they modify or describe. Descriptive adjectives are also called
qualitative adjectives.Participles are also included in this type of adjective when
they modify a noun.
Example:
I have a fast car. (The word ‘fast’ is describing an attribute of the car)
QUANTITATIVE ADJECTIVES

A quantitative adjective provides information about the quantity of the


nouns/pronouns. This type belongs to the question category of ‘how much’ and
‘how many’.
Example:
I have 20 bucks in my wallet. (How much)
PROPER ADJECTIVES

Proper adjectives are the adjective form of proper nouns. When proper nouns
modify or describe other nouns/pronouns, they become proper adjectives. ‘Proper’
means ‘specific’ rather than ‘formal’ or ‘polite.’A proper adjective allows us to
summarize a concept in just one word. Instead of writing/saying ‘a food cooked in
Chinese recipe’ you can write/say ‘Chinese food’.
Example:
American cars are very strong.
DEFINITE ADJECTIVE:

Definite Adjective or Definite Numeral Adj. begets definitive


numeric answers as in reply to “How many?” questions.
Examples:
Two doors lead to the main entrance of the castle.
INDEFINITE ADJECTIVE

It describes or modifies a noun unspecifically. They provide indefinite/unspecific


information about the noun. The common indefinite adjectives are few, many,
much, most, all, nobody, several, some, etc.
Examples:
I gave some candy to her.
ARTICLE
Articles are also adjectives. Articles determine the specification of nouns. ‘A’ and
‘an’ are used to refer to an unspecific noun, and ‘the’ is used to refer to a specific
noun.
Examples:
A cat is always afraid of water. (Here, the noun ‘cat’ refers to any cat, not
specific.)
