Adjectives

       
   

 


Fact Opinion
(they give objective information) large / new / round / young hot / sunny / small (they tell us what someone thinks of something) nice / beautiful / delicious / intelligent / good-looking

Opinion adjectives usually go before the fact adjectives:

Sometimes there are two or more fact adjectives. Very often (but not always) we put fact adjectives in this order.
