Adjectives 

Adjectives 

Adjectives = bijvoegelijk naamwoord

We use adjectives to describe a noun. We can explain how something looks, tastes or feels. 

We can be clear about which one we mean or how many there are of something. 

There are different types 

• Positive: This is the basic form of the adjective, used to describe one item or group without making a comparison. (e.g., big, happy, interesting)

• Comparative: This form is used to compare two items or groups, indicating a higher or lower degree of the quality. (e.g., bigger, happier, more interesting)

• Superlative: This form is used to compare three or more items or groups, indicating the highest or lowest degree of the quality. (e.g., biggest, happiest, most interesting)
