Hi,

If u use Beautifully honest girl. the word "Beautiful" refers to the Honest. If u want to refer the girl as beautiful. Then you should write it as "The Beautiful honesty girl".

Correct me If I'm wrong.

Bye

A beautifully honest girl

Is it correct to use beautifully?

Well, 'beautifully' is an adverb, so if we use it to modify 'honest', it means that the girl's honesty is beautiful, which, in a rather poetically descriptive way, is quite acceptable. But is that the meaning you're after? If not, I agree that you should use this structure, "beautiful and honest girl". There's also, "She's honestly a beautiful girl", which means, Truthfully, she's beautiful.

All the best.

OIC! What I want to say is a girl which is beautiful and honest.. I should have used "beautiful and honest girl"

Thank you so much to all!

There is an order to use adjectives.
Look at this Adjective phrase.

A(the) beautiful large round old white korean wooden writing desk

As you can see, after those determiners ( a, the, my, his, this, that..), many kinds of adjectives follow.
adjectives of subjective evaluation (poor, pretty, kind, beautiful, honest..)
" of size ( big, littl, large, small....)
" of shape or condition (round, square, oblong, chipped..)
" of age (old, young..)
" of color ( pink, yellow..)
" of origin (French, Korean, Chinese..)
" of material (plastic, wooden, porcelain..)
" derived from noun or ~ing (writing, jogging, medicla...)

when you use more than one of the same kind adjectives, you should insert 'and' between adjectives. However, if adjectives are not in the same category, they are just used according to the order above without 'and'.

As a NNS, I cannot help but to remember this rule. It's not quite easy, but more that 4 different types of adjectives are not used especially at one time, so I think I can manage it well soon.

Hope it helps anyway.
