An Adjective Phrase is a group of words that modifies or describes a noun or pronoun. It does NOT contain a subject or a verb.
Adjectives and Nouns are both parts of speech, but they are used in different ways. Adjectives are DESCRIPTIVE words - they tell how someone or something does or is. Nouns are NAMING words that include people, places, things, and ideas.
Adverbs describe VERBS. An easy way to remember this is that they ADD meaning to a VERB. They are usually easy to spot because they often end in the suffix -LY. Adjectives describe NOUNS. They can come directly before the noun or after a verb.

Its is a possessive pronoun used to show ownership, but it is frequently confused with the contraction It's. It's = It is or It has. If you can't replace it's in the sentence with it is or it has, then you've got the wrong one!
You're is a contraction that joins the two words You Are. If you can't replace the you're with the words "you are," you've got the wrong one!
Their is the possessive in this group. There refers to a location or place. They’re is a contraction that stands for They are.
Who's = who is/has It's a contraction that combines the words who & is or who & has. Whose shows ownership - Whose bag is this?

Descriptive adjectives tell the quality of the noun, and really help another person or a reader to see and experience things the way that you did. The more details you can give, the more specific a picture or feeling they will be able to get in order to understand what you're telling them.
A feeling adjective is a type of descriptive adjective that details how the noun or pronoun being modified feels. There are positive feelings and there are negative feelings, but that’s just the surface level of where feeling adjectives can go.
How do we figure out which of thousands of emotions we’re feeling? A scientist named Dr. Robert Plutchik researched emotions and proposed that there are certain main emotions that influence all others. They serve as foundational emotions or core emotion.
There can be positive tones, negative tones, or neutral tone adjectives to help describe the way in which your speaker is using the words. Then there are a whole different set of other tone adjectives that give more detail towards the way in which something is said.
Indefinite adjectives are words used to describe a noun in a more general way. There is always an element of mystery when using an indefinite adjective, because we just don’t know which things they refer to specifically.
A possessive adjective is an adjective used to describe to whom an object belongs. It comes before the noun or pronoun it modifies.
A proper adjective is a word formed from a proper noun that modifies a noun or pronoun. Usually, they are formed using the names of people, or countries, or religions.
Adjectives of quality are words that give more information about the kind or quality of the noun or pronoun it modifies. They are often called descriptive adjectives. It may tell you the color, shape, size, or type of a noun. They help the reader understand exactly what you mean.

Is There a Specific Order to Adjectives? To put it simply...YES. Native speakers often don’t realize it, but there is a certain way to order adjectives within a sentence. Beginning with a determiner, the adjectives are then arranged in a specific order.
