Remember adjectives are words that describe or modifies a noun (person place or thing)

whether they are possessive adjectives (my, your, his, his, her, its, our, theirs) Example Holmes

likes his work, pronouns or demonstrative adjectives( this, these, that and those)

singular plural

closer this these

farther that those

Remember: The demonstrative adjective is used directly in front of a noun - there is no article.

Example this book, that book, these books, those books

D. Read the following paragraph from the story above and find and underline the adjective

When I arrived the next day, Holmes was not there, so I waited in his room. At four o'clock the

door opened, and a very strange servant came in. He wore old, dirty clothes, and I had to look

very hard before I saw that it was my old friend. 'Holmes!' I cried. 'Where have you been?' 'I've

had a very good day,' he replied with a smile. 'I've been outside Miss Irene Adler's house.

Servants are always happy to talk, and so I have heard a lot about the young woman. For

example, she has a good looking man friend called Godfrey Norton, a lawyer, who often visits

her. Now why? If he's her lawyer, perhaps she's already given him the photograph. But if he

loves her, she won't show him the photograph.' 'Most interesting, Holmes!' I said. 'While I was

there, Mr Norton himself suddenly arrived. I watched them through the windows. When he left,

he jumped into a taxi. "To the church of St Monica, as fast as you can!" he shouted. Two minutes

later Miss Adler ran out of her house, jumped into another taxi and called, "To the church of St

Monica, quickly!" I couldn't miss this, Watson, so I jumped into a third taxi. When I arrived, I

WORDS WITH MORE THAN ONE MEANING

When you look for a word in a dictionary from a piece of writing or textbook, you must

look for the meaning according to the meaning in the context. It is important to know that

in all languages some words have more than one meaning. When there are different

meanings, each meaning will have a different number in the dictionary entry. See the

entry for the adjective below

daily (deli) adj.1. Of or occurring during the day.

2. Happening or done every day: the physician's daily

rounds. 3. Computed or assessed for each day: a daily

record. 4. Everyday: casual clothes only for daily use.

_____2. whistle b. a hole which is connected to a air-conditioning system

_____3. air-vent c. a hollow metal musical instrument connected to a pole,

_____4. bell-rope d. of a sympathetic, helpful, or benevolent nature:

_____5. mending e. a person who moves from place to place

_____6. kindly f. to produce a clear musical sound by forcing air through the teeth

D. Subjects and Verbs

Underline the simple subject and the verb or verb phrase in each of the following

sentences. Remember that for commands or requests, the subject is an understood

you.

1. I have heard of you, Mr. Holmes.

2. My stepfather offered no objection to the marriage.

3. The windows of the three rooms open out upon the lawn.

4. The wind was howling outside, and the rain was beating and splashing against the windows.

E. Cognates are words that have similar pronunciations and spellings in both languages (English

and Spanish), and frequently have the same meaning. There are thousands of cognates shared by

English and Spanish. Many of these are words with Latin or Greek origins and words that have

prefixes and suffixes derived from these ancient languages

Example: Destruction (English) Destruccin (Spanish)

Look back at the stories and find 10 words that have similar meaning in Spanish

Adjectives are words that describe or modify another person or thing in the sentence. The

Articles a, an, and the are adjectives. Examples

the tall professor - there might be many professors but to whom he is referring to is the

tall professor.

the lugubrious lieutenant - not just any lieutenant but the lugubrious lieutenant

a solid commitment - not just any commitment but a solid commitment

a month's pay - not just any pay but a months pay

a six -year-old child- not just any child but a six year old child

the unhappiest, richest man - not a rich man but the unhappiest richest man

Important to know: If a group of words containing a subject and verb acts as an adjective, it is


11/14

called an Adjective Clause. Example: My sister, who is much older than I am, is an engineer. If

an adjective clause is stripped of its subject and verb, the resulting modifier becomes an

Adjective Phrase: Example: He is the man who is keeping my family in the poorhouse.

F. Adjectives: Adjectives describe nouns by answering one of these three questions: What kind

is it? How many are there? Which one is it? An adjective can be a single word, a phrase, or a

clause. In the following sentences underline the adjective. The first one is done as an example:

* Remember in English, most cases the adjectives come before the nouns.
