Adjectives

We can use adjectives to describe people, places and things.

We've got a small car.
I saw a white bird.
This book isn't very old.

How to use them

We don't add s to the adjective when it's plural.

My brothers are short.
We've got three black cats.
She watched some old films.

Put size adjectives before colour adjectives.

I've got a big, blue ball.
That building is tall and grey.
