List Of Adjectives: 300+ Adjectives

Grammar is the bedrock of any language. Whether you want to speak or write, you should know the basics at any cost.

When you are told to express yourself in a few words, you’ll take some time to do so. Not even a content writer can do that.

That’s how difficult it is to conjure words. Well, not for everyone (hey there, Sashi Tharoor!)

Verbs, adverbs, and adjectives work in tandem and if you know a few of them at hand (or mind), you are good to go.

Grammar could be complex, but not if we study the basics.

Adjectives are one of the core grammar basics that everyone must know.

In our series of grammar articles, this list of 300+ adjectives will surely help you when you are at a loss for words.

List of Adjectives: 300+ Adjectives

As I mentioned in the introduction, adjectives are equally important as verbs and adverbs.

Before getting down to the actual 300+ adjectives, I’ll give you certain details that will help you master them.

1. What are Adjectives?

An adjective is a word that alters a noun or a pronoun. The word adds meaning to nouns or pronouns.

The word could be an attribute of a noun, such as sour, white, or technical.

List of Adjectives: 300+ Adjectives

In simple terms, adjectives give more information about nouns and pronouns.

Adjectives often provide us with answers to questions such as “What time?”, “Which one?”

Adjectives, or “describing words”, go after the noun to complete a connecting verb.

2. Types of Adjectives

There are 13 types of adjectives. We commonly use them in our daily conversation, but not many know that they are adjectives.

Following are the types of adjectives accompanied by an example to help you differentiate between them.

Comparative adjectives
Superlative adjectives
Predicate adjectives
Compound adjectives
Possessive adjectives
Demonstrative adjectives
Proper adjectives
Participial adjectives
Limiting adjectives
Descriptive adjectives
Interrogative adjectives
Attributive adjectives
Distributive adjectives

1. Comparative adjectives

Comparative adjectives are used to compare two separate people or things to each other.

Example:

Varun moved to a cheaper apartment.

2. Superlative adjectives

Superlative adjectives compare more than two people or things by designating which person/thing is the most supreme or extreme.

Example:

Adnan is the fastest member of our team.

3. Predicate adjectives

Predicate adjectives appear in the predicate of a sentence as a subject complement rather than directly next to the nouns or pronouns that they modify. Predicate adjectives always follow linking verbs in sentences and clauses.

Example:

Fardeen became angry.

4. Compound adjectives

Compound adjectives are adjectives that are formed from multiple words, which are usually connected by hyphens.

Example:

My happy-go-lucky dog loved our trip to the dog park.

5. Possessive adjectives

Possessive adjectives are frequently used to represent ownership or possession.

Example:

My favorite food is french fries.

6. Demonstrative adjectives

Demonstrative adjectives are used to display relative positions in space and time.

Example:

This Apple Watch is cheaper than that one.

7. Proper adjectives

Proper adjectives are adjectives formed from proper nouns. They are generally used to denote that something is related to a specific person or place.

Example:

I think Chinese food is tasty.

8. Participial adjectives

Participial adjectives are based on participles, which are words that usually end in -ed or -ing and derive from verbs.

Example:

Tarun was late for his swimming lessons.

9. Limiting adjectives

Limiting adjectives are adjectives that modify a noun or pronoun rather than explain its characteristics or qualities.

Example:

I bought some vegetables at the store.

10. Descriptive adjectives

Descriptive adjectives are adjectives that explain the characteristics, traits, or qualities of a noun or pronoun. Many adjectives are actually descriptive adjectives.

Example:

Hazel told a scary story.

11. Interrogative adjectives

Interrogative adjectives are adjectives that are used to ask questions. They include what, which, and where.

Example:

Whose turn is it to bathe the dog?

12. Attributive adjectives

Attributive adjectives are adjectives that are immediately next to the noun and pronoun that they change. Usually, attributive adjectives come now before nouns and pronouns, but they vary.

Example:

Swarali has beautiful handwriting.

13. Distributive adjectives

Distributive adjectives are used to relate to members of a group individually.

Example:

Each puppy got their toys.
