Kaveri Contest Day 3 – Adjectives

Submit quiz
Once you submit, you will no longer be able to change your answers. Are you sure you want to submit the quiz?

By the end of this lesson, you will:

  • Understand what adjectives are.
  • Learn different types of adjectives.
  • Use adjectives to make sentences more colorful and interesting.

What Are Adjectives?

Adjectives are words that describe nouns (people, places, animals, or things). They add details that help us imagine better.

  • The happy puppy wagged its tail.
  • She wore a red dress.
  • The mountain is tall.

Without adjectives, sentences can feel plain. With adjectives, they come alive!

Adjectives of Quality

Tell us about qualities like color, size, shape, or feelings.

  • The Blue sky.
  • A small cat.
  • The ball is round.
  • Our teacher is angry today.

Adjectives that show how much or how many.

  • There are three apples.
  • Many people are dancing.
  • There is little water in the glass.
  • We have no sugar.

Adjectives of Possession / Owenership.

  • This book is new.
  • That car is very expensive.
  • These shoes are old.
  • Those houses are built by the government.

NB: New, expensive and old are also adjectives. They are Adjectives of Quality.

Adjectives showing ownership.

  • That is my bag.
  • Where is your toy?
  • His bike is given for repair.
  • Who will wash her dress?
  • A tiger got into their school.

NB: That is also an adjective. 

Adjectives used to Ask Questions:

  • Which pen is yours?
  • What time is it?
  • Whose pencil is that?

Adjectives of Comparison

Comparative and superlative forms are used to compare adjectives. When comparing two things, we use the comparative form, usually by adding -er to short adjectives (e.g., taller, faster) or using more before longer adjectives (e.g., more beautiful). 

Superlative Adjectives

When comparing three or more things, we use the superlative form, usually by adding -est (e.g., tallest, fastest) or using most (e.g., most beautiful). We often use “than” after comparatives (She is taller than me) and “the” before superlatives (He is the tallest in the class).
