GRAMMAR “Adjectives”
Remember this!
In Spanish, the adjective usually comes after the noun, while in English it is the other way
around: “First the adjectives and then the noun”. Example: “I bought a wooden chair”.
In addition:
Adjectives go before / after a noun.
Adjectives change / don’t change before a plural noun.
“MODIFIERS”
Let’s remember this!
* VERY means a lot. It is used before adjectives and adverbs (but NOT a verb) to make
them stronger.
Examples:
I know he’s going to be very tired after his long trip. (He’s going to be much more than
a little tired).
We are both very interested in science. (We’re much more than a little interested).
She learns very quickly. (She learns more quickly than normal).
* REALLY has the same meaning as very, but really can be used before an adjective,
an adverb and a verb.
Examples:
She was really tired, so she went to bed.
He walked home really slowly.
I really like this city.
