HOW TO USE NOUNS & ADJECTIVES?
1️⃣ The Magic Rule: Adjective comes before the noun
In English, we put the describing word (adjective) before the thing (noun).
Formula:
adjective + noun = “What kind of…?”
Example:
red (adjective) + ball (noun) → red ball
round (adjective) + table (noun) → round table
