Adjectives - English grammar tutorial video lesson
Adjectives video lesson. This lesson is about adjectives.
Take a look
at these sentences:
She is a beautiful singer
He became poor after the war.
Both
the underlined words are what we call it adjectives. In this lesson, I am going to show you what
adjectives exactly are. I am going to explain something about the construction,
which we call the + adjective and I am going to take you through some common
confusables.
What are adjectives?
Adjectives give information about a noun or a pronoun so a
noun can be dog, cat and a pronoun can be he, she, it, him, her etc. This
information can either be one word or an entire clause or phrase. And a clause
or a phrase is a part of a sentenc.e For example he's talented. Talented says something
about the pronoun he.
My trousers are white.
White says something about my
trousers my trousers here being a noun.
My aunt, who is quite old, came to visit us. Here the underlines who is quite
old can also be concerned as an adjective, because it says something extra
about my aunt. Here it is clause and we call it a relative clause here.
Now where
do we place adjectives?
We place
adjectives generally before a noun.
For example:
He's a talented
football player.
My right leg is
broken.
Leg is the noun, right is the adjective.
We place
the adjective after a verb when it is part of a predicate and predicate are all
the verbs in a sentence.
For example:
This building can
never be old.
Old obviously
says something about the building, but because we have a predicate here so
several verbs and it is part of the predicate, we put it at the end sentence.
Now let's take a look
at the + adjective structure.
When describing a certain group the 'the + adjective'
construction is used.
For example:
The English eat a
hearty breakfast.
Or the rich get richer
every year, while the poor get poorer.
So we use this for an entire group so this could also be the
French, the Dutch, the Thai
the
Chinese, the Brazilians, for example.
Now let's take a look
at some common confusables.
For instance the word poor.
He is a poor boy.
This means
he has no money but
Her hearing is poor.
This means she can't hear very well.
Also the word 'small':
Their farm is small.
Says
something about the size but
They are small farmers.
This does
not mean that there is very little people but it says something about their farm
occupation so they probably have a small piece of land, which they work on also
the word mean.
He's mean with his money.
Obviously,
means that he doesn't like to spend his money but he is a mean man means that
he is not kind.
Adjectives in English grammar | Position in a sentence
In this lesson, you will learn about how to use
adjectives in English grammar.
The tutorial starts with a definition and then I give you
the rules for the form for describing singular and plural nouns.
The
position in a sentence is very important. I explain the attributive
position and then the predicative or predicate position after a link verb. For this position, it is acting as a
subject complement.
Adjectives
can also function as an object complement after the verbs "find",
"make" and "keep".
Finally, if
we want to describe an indefinite pronoun, like for example
"anything" or "something", then the adjective comes after
it.
For all of these different cases, I give a full explanation
and lots of examples.
