Adjective Order - English Grammar Lesson
source: Oxford Online English 2016年4月22日
When you use several adjectives with a noun in English, the adjectives have to go in a specific order. For example, we say "strong black Italian coffee," but you can't say "strong Italian black coffee" or "Italian black strong coffee." Why not? Because of the adjective order rules.
The basic rules for adjective order are:
- Opinions go before facts
- General ideas go before specific ideas
There's also a more complicated rule, which you'll see in the video.
