Adjectives are words that describe or modify nouns (people, places, things, or ideas) to give more information about them. They help make your writing or speech more vivid and interesting. Here are some key points about adjectives for a B1 learner:

1. What do adjectives do?
   • Adjectives add details to nouns, making your sentences more descriptive.
   • Example: “The happy dog wagged its tail.”
2. Position of adjectives:
   • Adjectives usually come before the noun they modify.
   • Example: “She has a beautiful garden.”
3. Comparative and superlative forms:
   • Adjectives can have comparative and superlative forms to compare things.
   • Comparative (comparing two things): “This book is bigger than that one.”
   • Superlative (comparing more than two things): “It’s the biggest book on the shelf.”
4. Common adjectives:
   • Adjectives can describe various qualities like size, color, shape, age, etc.
   • Example: “The old car is small and blue.”
5. Using “and” with adjectives:
   • You can use “and” to connect two adjectives.
   • Example: “She has a smart and friendly dog.”
6. Articles with adjectives:
   • Adjectives often come after articles (a, an, the).
   • Example: “I bought a delicious cake.”
7. Opposites:
   • Some adjectives have opposites (antonyms) that express the opposite meaning.
   • Example: “Hot” is the opposite of “cold.”
8. Practice:
   • Practice using adjectives by describing everyday things around you.
   • Example: “I see a tall tree outside my window.”

Remember, using adjectives helps make your language more colorful and interesting. Keep practicing, and you’ll become more comfortable with using adjectives in your writing and conversations!
