             A word naming an attribute of a noun, such as sweet, red or technical.

             Read the following examples:

                   1.  I saw a big    bunglow.                       2.  Lion is a dangerous     animal.
                   3.  Honest     men are always respected.

             The above coloured words big         , dangerous    and honest    tell us something about bunglow,
             animal and men. They are adjectives.
