 * Adjective and Adverb notes
 * An adjective is a word used to modify a noun or pronoun. An adjective answers one of these questions: Which one? What kind of? How many?
 * the //frisky// horse (Which horse?)
 * //cracked old// plates (What kind of plates?)
 * //nine// months (How many months?)
 * Adjectives usually precede the words they modify; sometimes they follow linking verbs: The decision was //unpopular//.
 * The definite article **//the//** and the indefinite articles **//a//** and **//an//** are also classified as adjectives. Ex: **//A//** worm crawled into **//the//** apple.
 * An adverb is a word used to modify a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. It usually answers one of these questions: When? Where? How? Why? Under what conditions? To what degree?
 * Ex.: Read the text //first// and //then// work the exercises. (Read when? Work when?)
 * Adverbs modifying adjectives or other adverbs usually intensify or limit the intensity of the word they modify.
 * Ex.: Be //extremely// kind and you will //probably// have many friends.
 * Big Questions group work
