Example of Order Of Adjectives In English (adjective Order)

When we use more than one adjective, whether attributive or predicative, it is usual to write adjectives in a certain order, taking into account the type or degree of modification or description that they exert on the noun or pronoun.

The order of the attributes, answering the following questions, is as follows:

- Article
- Whom? (whose)
- How many? (How many?)
- How is it like? (How does it look? What does it look like?)
- How big? (What size? how big?)
- How old? (How old?)
- What shape? (What shape or shape?)
- What Color? (What color?)
- Where is from? (Where it is?)
- What or How it is made? (What or how is it made?)
- Noun (Noun)

Therefore, the attributes that have to do with the appearance of the noun, will be mentioned first, then size, and so on, last being the material or shape it is done. Attributes of the same type must go together.

When we use comparative or augmentative particles such as: so, very, great, more, etc., we place them immediately before the adjective that they are going to complement.

When we use several adjectives, we will separate them by commas, and at the end of the enumeration, or, when we have only two adjectives, we can use the conjunction and.
