Adjectives are words that denote properties of objects, such as size (big), shape (round), color (red), texture (rough), material (wooden), state (sleeping), and aesthetic qualities (beautiful), among many others. As a grammatical category in English, adjectives modify nouns, appearing in either a prenominal position (before the noun, such as What an adorable baby!) or in predicative position, often after a copular verb (as in, Your baby is adorable!).
