EEL

REVIEW: Adjectives

We reviewed all the elements of Adjectives.

Adjective – An adjective modifies a noun or pronoun by describing, qualifying or limiting.

When working on the Quid et Quo, students have to make distinctions between descriptive, possessive, and limiting adjectives. With a descriptive adjective, students have to choose whether the word is positive, comparative, or superlative. Refer to Chart L for more information.

Predicate Adjective- is an adjective that follows a linking verb and modifies (i.e., refers back to) the subject of the linking verb and describes the subject.

OCA- object complement adjective describes the DIRECT OBJECT.

VERBAL- Participle – A participle is a verb form used as an adjective and most often ends in –ed, -en, t, or –ing.

Article Adjective- One of the three articles that cannot be translated into Latin. Articles are used before nouns and are a type of adjective. The definite article (the) is used before a noun to indicate that the identity of the noun is known to the reader.

Possessive Pronoun Adjective-is a modifier:Show possession and functions as adjective
