Classify Adjectives by Type

An adjective is a word that describes a noun (someone or something).

Adjectives can be sorted into different types.

In the sentence about Jimmy there are three adjectives. The word happy describes how Jimmy was feeling, while big describes the size of the balloon and red describes the colour of the balloon.
