Adjective placement Where should I put my adjectives? When you use several adjectives, please use he following order to build your sentence. Please note that sentences containg 4 (or more!) adjectives are very awkward and should be split into several sentences.

Dimension >> a large house, a big car
Age >> an old boat, a young boy
Shape >> an oval carpet, a round table
Colour >> a grey raincoat, a green door
Origin >> French bread, a Japanese town
Material >> a plastic bottle, a wooden treasure
EXAMPLES:
>A wonderful old Italian clock. (opinion - age - origin)
>A big square blue box. (dimension - shape - colour)
>A disgusting pink plastic ornament. (opinion - colour - material)
>Some slim new French trousers. (dimension - age - origin)
