An adjective is a word used to modify or describe a noun or pronoun. They are always near the noun or pronoun they are describing. Adjectives are often overused and add little to a sentence. To avoid this problem, try using verbs and nouns creatively. Choose your adjectives carefully and use them when they have the greatest impact! Adjectives are often used to describe the degree of modification. The adjective forms are positive, comparative, and superlative.

This boy is tall. (positive)

That girl is taller. (comparative)
