 The correct order of adjectives in English. When you use more than one adjective, you have to put them in the right order, or it will sound very strange. Do you say I want a big black cat, or I want a black big cat? Let's take a look at infographic below. So, do you say I want a big black cat, or I want a black big cat? The first one is correct. Why? If big is size and black is color, then it should come first because size is number 2, and color is number 5 on the infographic above. You can use this chart for all orders of adjectives. A quick and easy way is to always place the adjective that is easy to change first. Number 1, opinion, can be changed more easily than number 6, origin, where something is from. It is easy for me to change my opinion of someone, but it is not easy for me to change where they come from. Therefore, place the opinion adjective first. Thanks so much for watching.
