Adjectives describe nouns. In grammar, we say that adjectives<br />

"modify" nouns. The word "modify" means "change a<br />

little." Adjectives give a little different meaning to a noun:<br />

cold weather, hot weather, nice weather, bad weather.<br />

Adjectives come in front of nouns<br />

(d) The weather is cold. Reminder: An adjective can also follow be; the adjective<br />

(noun) + (be) + (adj) describes the subject of the sentence. (See Chart 1-6.)<br />
