Types of Adjectives  

Types of Adjectives
Shape: These are closely related to the size adjectives. They, as their name suggest, give us some information about the shape of the noun. For example: round, angular, rectangular, flat, etc.
Colour: A colour adjective describes the colour of the noun. For example: red, green, black, pinkish, etc.
Pattern: As the name suggests, these adjectives tell us about the pattern (if any) of the noun. For example: chequered, striped, spotted, flowery, floral, zigzag, etc.
Origin: Adjectives related to origin tells us about the origin of the noun or from where the noun has come. For example: Chinese, western, solar, Italian, Turkish, etc.
Material: These adjectives provide us with information about the material of the noun or what are nouns made up of. For example: clay, wooden, cotton, metal, rubber, paper, plastic, synthetic, gold, silver, etc.
Purpose: The last in the order are the purpose adjectives. These adjectives describe what the noun is used for or what is the actual purpose of the noun. For example: gardening, roasting, cleaning, shopping, riding, sleeping, etc.
This is the order of adjectives that is most commonly followed while using multiple adjectives before a noun in the same sentence in the English language. Please also note that we normally use a determiner before adjective + noun combination. Some examples of determiners are: a, an, the, my, your, this, that, her, his, five (numbers), those, some, etc.
