Why are adjectives important?

An adjective is a Word that describes a noun; the adjective gives information about the noun it describes. For example:

a ball (noun); a red ball (an adjective telling about the noun); a large red ball (two adjectives telling more about the noun)

An adverb modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb; the adverbs change (is not going) or qualify (often going, always going, seldom going) the Words they modify. For example:

We quickly ran for cover. (quickly modifies the verb 'ran' as how we ran) She had a very bad cold. (very qualifies the adjective 'bad' as how bad her cold was) I never actually met him. (never qualifies the adverb 'actually' as not happening in reality)

Adjectives:

The warm sand felt good to my feet.

(adjective 'warm', noun 'sand')

We had hot wings for lunch.

(adjective 'hot', noun 'wings')

Adverbs:

She sang softly to the baby.

(adverb 'softly', verb 'sang')

He calmly explained the problem.

(adverb 'calmly', verb 'explained')

Your brother is a really cheerful guy.

(adverb 'really', adjective 'cheerful')
