Hello,
I'm wondering what order I should arrange the adjectives in the sentence below in. According to some grammars, we put adjectives in the following way:
opinion - size - age - shape - colour - origin - material - purpose (compound noun)
Jill's wearing a tutrleneck sweater today. It's old, it's scruffy but pretty tight-fitting.
Is 'tight-fitting' an opinion adjective? Or a shape one? :-?
Should I say
She's wearing a scruffy old tight-fitting turtleneck sweater?
I'd be grateful for any comments.
Thank you.
