An adjective is a word which describes a noun (common, proper, singular or plural), this means an adjective adds extra detail about the noun.

As an example here are some adjectives we could use to describe an apple:

In this example we've used adjectives to describe what the apple looks like (red, spotty, shiny), what it feels like (smooth), what it tastes like (delicious, juicy and healthy).

It can often help to use our senses to help us describe nouns.
