ordering and formation of adjectives

Hi everyone,

Does somebody know where I can get some exercises on the formation and/or order of adjectives on the web. I'd like to exercise myself constructing the sentences in English and then translating them into French.

Thank you for you help.

There are a couple of exercises on the order of adjectives here: http://www.usingenglish.com/quizzes/index.php
;-)

Thank you TDOL for the tip!Hela

The order of adjectives is a grammatical topic of the recommended FCE preparation syllabus; therefore most coursebooks contain a chapter devoted to it, not only with some good exercises, but also with a generous amount of explanation.

I'm not sure whether you can get hold of some FCE coursebooks; if so, please check 'First Certificate Gold' or 'Think First Certificate'.

Good luck!

Re: order of adjectives on the web

Go to your search engine and do a search under Royal Order of Adjectives. There's a great page at webster commnet.

Thanks Casiopea, I'll do that right now!

By the way, what's the meaning of "Casiopea"?

Bye,

You're welcome.

The name Casiopea is taken from a constellation, but the name of the constellation is spelled differently.

Thank you for the information Casiopea.

See you soon,

You're welcome.
